Solving Local Crime "CSI Style"

You see it on TV shows all the time...how DNA is used to solve cases that grew dusty.

It was used to crack a six year old rape case in Wilkes-Barre.  A woman was raped as she walked along Carey Avenue in November of 2000.  Body fluids from the attacker were collected and saved.  They were checked against a data base every now and then and in March of last year, it linked them to Anthony McClair, who was charged Tuesday.

He pleaded "no contest" to a felony and will be sentenced in August.
