Timothy Scott Joley, 71, was arrested in Clearwater, Florida, for the double murder of Theresa Marcoux, 18, and Mark Harnish, 20, in 1978. Authorities charged him with two counts of homicide after a tip led to new evidence. Joley's fingerprints matched a bloody print found on the victims' truck. He had been living in Springfield at the time of the murders and was a licensed gun owner. Joley is currently in jail without bond and has waived extradition to Massachusetts. He will face charges there in the coming weeks.
