Justice has finally come for 10-year-old Jeanine Nicarico.
Ten-year-old Jeanine Nicarico was kidnapped, raped and murdered while out sick from school on Feb. 25, 1983.
A 52-year-old former Aurora man could admit on Tuesday that he kidnapped, raped and killed a Naperville girl back in 1983.
Brian Dugan, the 52-year-old Aurora man who admitted to raping and killing the Naperville girl, pleaded guilty to the 1983 murder today, in hopes of saving himself from the death penalty.
At 3 p.m., the man twice convicted of murder and sex attacks on young women and currently serving two life terms for killings of Geneva nurse Donna Schnorr and 7-year-old Melissa Ackerman of Somonauk, took responsibility for the crime that sent two other men to death row.
One of those men, Rolando Cruz, said he feels no sympathy for Dugan.
"I got locked up when I was 20 years old," Cruz said. "He's a disgusting animal. He asked for it when he raped and killed those girls, he asked and begged for it."
Dugan admitted to the kidnapping, rape and murder of Nicarico under hypnosis 24 years ago. It was that, along with DNA evidence, helped exonerate Cruz and Alejandro Hernandez, who went through two trials before having the charges dropped in 1995.
"He knew the clothes she was wearing. He knew amazingly how the blindfold was constructed, " Rob Warden of the Center for Wrongful Convictions said. "We know that DNA implicated Brian Dugan, linked the crime to Brian Dugan -- and Brian Dugan alone."
