Another victim of suspected serial killer Darren Vann has a name.
A body found Oct. 19 in a vacant house at 2200 Massachusetts St. has been identified as Tracy Martin, 41, of Gary.
Lake County Coroner Merrilee Frey issued a news release Friday afternoon, stating that the Indiana State Police laboratory used DNA testing to confirm the identify of the decomposed body that was found in the wake of Vann’s confession that he killed several women and hid their bodies in abandoned homes in the city.
Martin is the fifth of seven women to be identified.
Vann is being held without bail at the county jail on two murder charges. Additional charges have been delayed while police wait for Frey to declare the women as homicide victims. In Friday’s release, Frey makes no mention of the cause or manner of Martin’s death.
The case against Vann, 43, of Gary, broke when Hammond police found Afrika Hardy, 19, dead in motel bathtub on Oct. 17 and determined that Vann had been with her at the motel.
He was arrested the following day after police traced Hardy’s cellphone to him. Vann admitted killing several women and told police where the bodies could be found.
