Show Notes
Marc Karun, a 60-year-old man, stands trial in Connecticut for the kidnapping and murder of 11-year-old Kathleen Marie Flynn in 1986. Flynn disappeared after school and was found strangled in the woods the next day. Karun, who lived nearby, was arrested in Maine in 2019 but faced delays due to federal weapons charges. Karun had a history of sexual assault and abduction charges, including a ten-year sentence for sexual assault in 1989. The case was reopened due to DNA evidence from under Flynns nails, which pointed to Karun in 2012 and was confirmed in 2017. The trial is expected to bring closure to a tragedy that has haunted Norwalk for nearly four decades.
