PEOPLE v. KRAFT (2000) | FindLaw
Recent Developments: The body of the teen now identified as Schlicht was found on Sept. 14, 1974, as two people were off-roading on a fire road northeast of Laguna Beach, California, the release said. The death of the 17-year-old was initially determined to be accidental due to alcohol and diazepam intoxication. prosecutors described Kraft, a former computer programmer, as a fetishist who kept some of the dismembered parts of his victims in his freezer. After his conviction, he told the judge, "I have not murdered anyone and I believe a reasonable review of the record will show that." John Doe's death got another look in November 2022, when sheriff's department investigators submitted tissue samples to a private forensic biotechnology company to develop a DNA profile. Investigators then loaded the profile into a genealogy database to begin building a family tree. That eventually led them to Kansas City, Missouri, to obtain a DNA sample from a woman believed to be the victim's mother.
The sheriff's department is now investigating Schlicht's homicide case. Anyone with information related to the case is asked to contact Orange County Crime Stoppers at 1-855-TIP-OCCS or crimestoppers.org.
