The identities of Orange County’s oldest ‘Jane Doe’ murder victim and her killer are now known thanks to DNA, officials say.
She was known as “Jane Doe” for 52 years. Now, Anita Louise Piteau of Augusta, Maine, is known to be the victim of Huntington Beach’s longest-running cold case. Her killer, Johnny Chrisco, was also identified through familial DNA, according to the Huntington Beach Police Department.
Anita left her home to come to Hollywood, according to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office. She wanted to see where movies were made, and kept in touch with her family by mail. “She had every intention of returning home,” Kimberly Edds of the OCDA’s office told Patch. Her last correspondence was in February of 1968.
They never heard from her again.

Why the ‘Super Weird’ Moons of Mars Fascinate Scientists

Mars is the darling of many planetary scientists, who continue to visit it through increasingly advanced robotic explorers. But don’t forget that our planetary neighbor is adorned with two moons: puny Phobos, a lumpy mass 17 miles across; and diminutive Deimos, just 9 miles long. Their names in ancient Greek may mean “fear” and “dread’, but the aesthetics of these Lilliputian space potatoes inspire anything but.
They don’t look anywhere near as interesting as the volcanic or icy-ocean moons of Jupiter and Saturn, nor is their desolation as extreme or diverse as Earth’s moon. But that hasn’t stopped generations of planetary scientists from being eager to get a closer look at the ramshackle duo.
The Soviet Union and, later, Russia have tried three times to reach Phobos, but software errors and launch disasters have doomed every attempt. Scientists in the U.S. have tried and, so far, failed to convince the powers-that-be at NASA that a mission to the two moons will be worthwhile. The next great hope is Japan, which is aiming to launch a heist mission to Phobos in 2024 that will try to steal some of its rocks.

How Pre-Prohibition Drinking Laws Led New Yorkers to Create the World’s Worst Sandwich

Near the end of the 19th century, New Yorkers out for a drink partook in one of the more unusual rituals in the annals of hospitality. When they ordered an ale or whiskey, the waiter or bartender would bring it out with a sandwich. Generally speaking, the sandwich was not edible. It was “old desiccated ruin of dust-laden bread and mummified ham or cheese,” wrote the playwright Eugene O’Neill. Other times it was made of rubber. Bar staff would commonly take the sandwich back seconds after it had arrived, pair it with the next beverage order, and whisk it over to another patron’s table. Some sandwiches were kept in circulation for a week or more.
Bar owners insisted on this bizarre charade to avoiding breaking the law—specifically, the excise law of 1896, which restricted how and when drinks could be served in New York State. The so-called Raines Law was a combination of good intentions, unstated prejudices, and unforeseen consequences, among them the comically unsavory Raines sandwich.
