The suspect in a cold case murder from 1975 in Sturgeon Bay is in a Michigan jail, waiting to return to Wisconsin. Carol Jean Pierce went missing 43 years ago. Richard Pierce, her husband at the time, was taken into custody Thursday in Cheboygan. Agents from the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of Criminal Investigation and officers with the Sturgeon Bay Police Department made the arrest. Investigators say Richard Pierce was the last to see the victim alive, had motive and opportunity to kill her, and benefitted from her death.
