4-7-14 beck cold case investigation

The Fond du Lac County Sheriff’s Office is now focusing on an over the road trucker from Kenosha as a suspect in the disappearance and murder of a Sturdevant teenager in Fond du lac County more than two decades ago.  Investigators say photographs of 60 year old Dennis Brantner’s hands are being analyzed at the state crime lab along with evidence taken from Berit Beck’s van in 1990.  A March 28th search warrant notes that Brantner has a physical deformity on one of his hands, and that electronic items taken from Beck’s van could link Brantner because he is a truck driver.   Beck disappeared in July of 1990 while traveling from her home in Sturdevant to a computer seminar in Appleton.  Her van was found in the Forest Plaza parking lot two days later and her body was found in a roadside ditch in the town of Waupun in late August.
