BREVARD COUNTY • PALM BAY, FLORIDA (WFTV) – A Palm Bay man’s DNA has been linked to the case of the Pillowcase Rapist, the man who sexually assaulted more than 40 women from South Miami to Deerfield Beach in the 1980s, according to investigators.

Robert Koehler, 60, has been linked to DNA samples matching as many as 25 sexual assault cases from as early as the 1980s, the Miami-Dade State Attorney announced during a news conference Thursday.

“That DNA sample was taken directly to the crime laboratory where analysts worked, literally, all through last night to be able to confirm 100% that Koehler is the source of that male DNA that was found in so many of those Pillowcase Rapist cases.”
