Another case from the show has been closed. Gloria Schulze was featured on the April 19, 1996 episode. She had been charged with manslaughter in the death of Angela Maher. On the night of July 29, 1994, Angela had been driving to pick up a friend in Scottsdale, Arizona, when she was struck by Schulze, who was driving drunk. Ironically, Angela had been an advocate against drunk driving and had established a chapter of SADD, or "Students Against Drunk Driving", at her school. In September 1995, Schulze disappeared while out on her own recognizance.

Recently, an investigator spoke to Schulze's brother and learned that the brother had received an anonymous phone call; the caller said that Schulze had recently died from cancer in Yellowknife, Canada. The investigator discovered that Schulze had been living under the name "Kate Dooley" and had died on December 1, 2019. The RCMP located "Dooley's" fingerprints from a 2009 arrest for DUI. The FBI and RCMP compared the fingerprints to Schulze's known fingerprints. They were a match.

30-year-old Arizona homicide case closed after fingerprints matched to deceased fugitive (https://www.azcentral.com/story/news/local/scottsdale/2024/05/29/scottsdale-police-idd-fugitive-in-30-year-old-homicide-case/73896216007/)

Scottsdale PD found the drunk driver accused of killing a woman in 1994. But they'll never serve time in prison. (https://www.12news.com/article/news/crime/scottsdale-pd-found-drunk-driver-accused-killing-woman-1994-unsolved-mysteries/75-1802d7a2-35e4-402d-9e8d-bbf7942d555a)

Karma is real. Another case solved!

Karma is real.

Not really-she never spent a day in jail. She was released right away, failed to comply with her bail conditions of drug testing-yet nothing was done about that. Didn't show up in court & was able to live her life for another 25 years.

Even when police arrested her for another DUI 15 years back her prints weren't checked, or were they even in the database? Did they even take them in 1994? They didn't even charge her parents for aiding & abetting her by selling her two cars & no doubt sending her the cash. Total incompetence.

I couldn’t agree more. There is nothing satisfying about this ending other than knowing she can no longer be a danger to others on the road. There is no justice. There is no karma.

What struck me most about this entire saga, other than how law enforcement in Arizona barely even treated this as a crime, was the complete lack of remorse on Gloria’s part. Even Angela’s mother pointed this out in the courtroom to the judge. And now we have confirmation that she never cared about killing another human being since she continued to get DUI’s while on the run in Canada. The wake-up call never came to her. In the end, no remorse and no consequences.

Angela’s brother mentioned during the segment that the healing process cannot begin until they know Gloria is behind bars. My heart breaks even more for them now.

SCOTTSDALE, AZ (AZFamily) — A fugitive wanted in connection with a deadly DUI crash from 1994 in Scottsdale has been located years after she changed her name and fled to Canada, police say, marking the end of a three-decade-long cold case.

The Scottsdale Police Department confirmed Tuesday that Gloria Schulze, who was a 31-year-old resident of Scottsdale, fled to Yellowknife, Canada, where authorities learned that she had been using the name “Kate Dooley” to evade police. However, Schulze died from cancer in 2019.

The collision happened in north Scottsdale on the night of July 29, 1994, when 21-year-old Angela Maher was on her way to Old Town Scottsdale to pick up a friend. She died in the crash.

Investigators researched and found a tribute for a woman named Kate Dooley, which resembled a rendering of what Schulze would likely look like present day.

Cohen contacted the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who confirmed that Dooley had been arrested in 2009 for a DUI and that her fingerprints were on file. The detective then sent a fingerprint card to the FBI, which passed the request to INTERPOL and ultimately handed over the fingerprints to Canadian authorities.

On April 17, 2024, Scottsdale police were notified of matching fingerprints, confirming that Kate Dooley was, in fact, Gloria Schultz. Scottsdale police say the 30-year-old case is now closed.

Another DUI in 2009… and that’s just one she got caught for.

When someone flees, there’s a small part of me that tries to rationalize it by hoping the person thinks about what they did, and are trying to live a better life. But not these piece of garbage.

I really hope it at least brings Angela's family some peace that Gloria's whereabouts are at least known now. Angela seemed like a beautiful person, inside and out, who touched many people during her life. I am sure that after her death, many viewers of the UM segment were also impacted by her story and crusade against drunk driving. I hope that knowledge gives comfort to her family.

Very sad she killed someone and fled.............

******* *****!!! (self censored)

This is not the updated I wanted to this one. What has always enraged me most is that I was certain her family helped her flee and or go into hiding.

Screw her brother, too, frankly. There is no way he didn't know where she was this whole time. He's not a hero for letting it be known after her death.

Dammit! :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

Good riddance.

She evaded any and all consequences for what she did to Angela and the Maher family, to the extent that, despite being a fugitive, she continued to endanger other people's lives.

I agree with those that are upset. I am happy for Angela's family. They finally have closure. I'm sure that is important to them. there was a long time where we didn't even know if they would get any closure. with that said Gloria got away with it and lived another 30 years without any accountability.

Canada is a vast and mostly remote country and it makes me wonder how many American criminals fled there and got away. I know Richard Bocklage comes to mind. I still hope he is located.

I recently watched a documentary of a toronto man who murdered multiple women in his younger days and fled to Moosonee Ontario where he basically started a new life. he was a well respected citizen in Moosonee and was eventually captured through ancestry DNA. I think he was in his 20's when he committed the murders and he was in his 60's when he was finally captured. Authorities allegedly claim that they were pretty sure it was one of his brothers that committed the murders as they were going one by one through each DNA test. goes to show how people can somehow get away.

Very sad so many had to die be4 she was taken care of!!

Karma is real. Another case solved!

I agree with those who note that it would have been better, of course, if she had been caught and tried for her crime.

But also, I agree with this. Gloria died at a young age - 56 - of a disease that is a slow and malicious killer. Anyone who has seen someone go through it know what torture it is, for the person going through it and their caretakers.

By 1994 standards, she would have probably spent less than five years in prison for the accident. Can't prove it would have turned out this way of course, but living to 80 and dying peacefully in one's sleep but having done a stint of five years in prison is probably preferable, on balance, to skipping prison but only by relocating to another country and having to abandon everything and everyone you ever knew, then dying at 56 and probably spending the last two years of that racked by constant pain and/or the ravages of chemo, radiation, and likely both, ending life bed ridden and unable to care for oneself.

Her end, while not satisfying for the story, was likely one that would be deemed cruel and unusual were it intentionally inflicted.

I can't call her dying karma, even if I believed in such a phenomenon. She just...died. Like everyone who ever lives will eventually.

The universe knew she was guilty so the universe took action.......

The universe knew she was guilty so the universe took action.......

I just wish the universe could have worked quicker. The fact that she got to go on living free for another 30 years, without a care in the world, living off her rich parents money, still drinking and driving and putting people’s lives in danger…those facts are hard to stomach.

Ya I know..............

Even when police arrested her for another DUI 15 years back her prints weren't checked, or were they even in the database? Did they even take them in 1994?

Canada is not in the habit of taking fingerprints for DUI cases. The Police will usually take you to the Police Station, have you perform a breathalyser, and if over the limit, give the offender a summons for court, suspend their license, and impound their vehicle.

However, I do not believe they fingerprint people, unless there are additional charges.

The RCMP in Canada just closed four cases of women in Calgary, Alberta that were raped and murdered during the 1970s. Gary Allen Srery, who was from Idaho, was a fugitive from justice when he crossed the border at some point in the 70s. He lived in Calgary, Alberta, before relocating to British Columbia. Police believe he has more victims.

Srery crossed back into the United States later on, committed a rape, and was sentenced to life in prison, and eventually died in 2011. DNA tests recently linked him to the Calgary murders.

Bittersweet feeling for sure. Sad that she never faced justice but at the very least the case was solved. Cancer was definitely a karma for her

Yet, they won't let someone with a DUI conviction into the country. At least, not one that's within the past 10 years, I think it is.

Anyway.. I said long ago.. There was no way she hid on her own. I stand by that. Who got her into Canada, who kept her hidden all these years?

I get she was a bit hiding in plain sight, but.. Someone helped her. I think that person needs to be found.

Her family helped her from day one. There's not a doubt in my mind. Her parents had tons and tons of money. So much money that she never attempted to have a life/career or any semblance of working jobs. Her parents bought a top-notch attorney who successfully got the trial postponed 6 times! A common tactic from rich people who go on trial for crimes (delay, delay, delay) a luxury that your regular everyday citizen wouldn't be allowed.

When it came to the point where they couldn't delay the trial anymore, the parents used their money to help her hide. She didn't have the ability or the intelligence to go on the run without their help. And lucky for them, the court system did such a horrible job monitoring her that it's no wonder she got away.

Very plausible.

But.. Someone needs to dig and find the proof.. Because.. Those that helped her evade justice need to face justice.

We know where she died. We know where she absconded from.. Filling in the middle.. If her parents wound up in some of the same places.. Though, I would assume they have passed by now. Not certainly, but they'd, at a minimum, be in their 80's now.

I think this is one I'd put in the "ostensibly solved" or "possibly solved" category rather than solved.

Supposedly this was the same woman, based on a "tip" from persons unknown. The only verification was a finger print set supposedly.

I don't think we will ever really have more certainty than this however, so I guess that is where it stands.

I do wonder how she managed to get away and stay hidden so long. I've always suspected she had some help.

You take umbrage to fingerprint matches?

You take umbrage to fingerprint matches?

Fingerprint evidence is not as reliable as its portrayed in TV shows and by prosecutors. This has been known for years, but has gotten more attention in the last 5 or so years. A Google Search should reveal numerous publications on the issues at hand, but suffice to say they are not 100% reliable.

Furthermore, fingerprints have a similar issue to DNA, in that the evidence analysis is done behind closed doors and by individuals who work for the state either de facto or de jure. Independent verification of the evidence only happens in a court of law. When a court case doesn't happen there is no independent verification.

I agree, She got to live her life in another country free! I wonder if her family knew or helped her?
