Search goes on for killer of WKU teacher

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) — Police in Bowling Green say they’re still getting tips five years after a Western Kentucky University professor’s slaying in her family’s van.

Detective Melinda Jones told The Daily News (http://bit.ly/1zVduxF ) that the department has gotten tips about the death of 51-year-old Martha "Bettina" Richmond as recently as May.

Jones says every piece of evidence sent off for forensic examination at the Kentucky State Police Crime Lab has been tested with the exception of one item. Now, Jones says, police are ready to conduct more extensive testing.

Family members found Richmond’s body inside the family’s Honda Odyessy at about 11:30 p.m. CDT Nov. 22, 2009 in the parking lot of the Bowling Green parks and recreation building.
