Police have tied Christine's murder to an attack that happened in 1996 in Washington D.C. This sketch was released after that attack.
Christine Mirzayan was brutally raped and bludgeoned to death Aug. 1, 1998. Her murderer has since been linked to eight other rapes throughout Montgomery County, Md.
Witnesses who saw a man stalking Christine on her walk home were able to provide D.C. police with enough information to sketch this composite of the killer.
Police say the killer used this 71 pound rock to murder Christine Mirzayan.
