Dorothy Wood was murdered during a burglary at her home in Whitby Avenue, Huddersfield.
A man was convicted of her murder in 1998 but later appealed and his conviction was quashed in 2002 after it was heard that an ear print that was found on a window that linked him to the murder could not be proven to be his. A retrial was ordered but the prosecution offered no evidence and he was acquitted.
