ST. ANN, Mo.—A man has been charged with murder and jailed in a case that baffled police for nearly two decades—the death of a woman whose decapitated torso was found at a Missouri rest stop along Interstate 70.
Mike A. Clardy, 63, of Maryland Heights, Missouri, was charged Wednesday with second-degree murder and abandonment of a corpse in the killing of Deanna Denise Howland. His bail was set at $1 million.
