DNA Links Man to 1970s Rape Case

DNA has linked the man known as the “Pillowcase Rapist” in Kansas City to a rape case that’s almost 30 years old. Police have arrested Robert Fellows, who already is in prison in Bonne Terre for 75 years. He’s accused of two counts of rape, sodomy and robbery in the latest case. Fellows was convicted of another 1977 rape long enough ago that he is eligible for parole on that conviction. Fellows was known as the “Pillowcase Rapist” because he used pillowcases to keep his victims from seeing his face during the attacks.
