COBB COUNTY, Ga.,None — Cobb County Police Department officials made an arrest in connection with a rape case from 2003.
Officials said a DNA match was made by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation Crime Lab on evidence obtained from a 2003 rape.
Police said the victim was raped at the Woodhollow Apartment complex on Powers Ferry Road in Marietta in 2003.
The DNA match identified a suspect, which furthered the investigation, police said. Based on the investigation, detectives obtained an arrest warrant for Robin Tracey Harrington.
At the time of the rape, Harrington was a door-to-door salesman, police said. Police said he may have used his employment at that time as a ruse to contact victims.
