"Buck" Cross, center, follows him out of the Upshur County Courtroom after his execution date was set in Gilmer, Texas. McFadden, who was executed by the state of Texas in 1999 has been identified via DNA as the person who killed a 20-year-old woman in Portland, Ore., nearly 40 years ago. Anna Marie Hlavka was slain in an apartment on July 24, 1979. Authorities said Thursday, Jan. 31, 2019, her killer, McFadden, was identified using the same technology that led to an arrest last year in California in the "Golden State Killer" case.
