A single lick-and-stick postage stamp, sealed for twenty-one years, held the DNA clue that finally answered how a woman was killed inside her own home with no sign of forced entry. Could a fragment of adhesive under a flag stamp identify the person who strangled Diane Schultz in 2001?
In this episode, we follow the evidence trail from a lost business card and a ritual home routine to an overlooked stamp pulled from long-stored evidence. We trace how advances in DNA extraction turned a tiny three-millimeter adhesive sample into the pivotal lead that reopened a two-decade-old case.
Person: Diane Schultz
Date: November 14, 2001
Location: Cresson Park drainage ditch; home on same street
Case: Unresolved strangulation for twenty-two years until reanalysis
Evidence: American flag lick-and-stick postage stamp sealed in evidence envelope
- Diane Schultz was found strangled on November 14, 2001 at 6:41 a.m. in a drainage ditch less than two miles from her home.
- Diane was last seen alive carrying groceries at around 6:15 p.m, on November 11, 2001 by neighbor Ted Parrish.
- Detective Harold Wick worked the case for eleven years and retired in 2012 with the file unresolved; he died in 2019.
- The postage stamp was an American flag series 2001 issue, sealed in an evidence envelope for twenty-one years until 2022.
- A 3-millimeter section of adhesive was selected from the lower left corner of the stamp for DNA extraction using protocols developed by Meridian DNA director Priya Khatri.
