Douglas County Cold Case: Rosemary Wermter

Douglas County Cold Case: Rosemary Wermter

"There are those that say 'Forget the past, solving Rose’s murder will not bring her back'. Of course this is true. However, why should the person or persons who savagely killed her be allowed to freely enjoy life when Rose has not had that luxury for over 34 years? Why have they had the opportunity to watch children grow, go shopping, or walk in the woods when Rose could not?

"Rose was a warm, caring, beautiful young woman. Like every other member of the human race, she had her faults. However, she did not deserve to be slaughtered.  Those that loved and cared about her not only live with the painful memory of the tragic loss, but also the uncertainty resulting from the lack of closure.

"Whoever is responsible for her death must be held accountable for their actions, regardless of how long it’s been.  We may never know who was responsible for her death, but that does not mean that we should forget her of forget that there is someone out there who is capable of committing such a heinous act."

-The Family of Rosemary Wermter
