July 19 (UPI) -- Greek police have identified the man they say killed an American scientist at a conference in Crete this month.
Police named Yiannis Paraskaki Thursday as the killer of Suzanne Easton, a molecular biologist who had gone hiking July 2 while on a break from the conference. After a large search, officials found her body nearly a week later in a ventilation drain of an abandoned World War II bunker outside of Chania. Officials said she'd also been sexually assaulted.
