Police said Lang was killed at a home she shared with her father and brothers on Route 982 near the Derry Township village known as Peanut. "We are one step closer in the process, and we're committed to this case."Īuthorities said Ream had been a suspect in the killing for years, but it was not until an unnamed informant spoke again with police last year followed by two others this year - one in May and another in July - that police believed they had enough evidence to charge him with Lang's death.Īccording to the criminal complaint, the informants claimed Ream confessed to Lang's murder. "To look into (Polo's) eyes and see the pain that she has felt every day was all the more reason that I remained vigilant to this case and every investigator did and every member of my team," Ziccarelli said. State Trooper Tristan Tappe said Ream was taken into custody Wednesday at his workplace but declined to disclose circumstances of the arrest or additional details about the investigation.ĭistrict Attorney Nicole Ziccarelli said she has met with Polo over the past year and said solving Lang's murder has been a priority. I don't know, she was just that type of child, a good kid," Polo said. If you were new at her school or whatever, she was your friend she was the first one you would meet. Her laugh, her smile, she was very outgoing. If you met her once, you could never forget her. Polo described her daughter as a friendly young woman whose death she still grieves. "We've just been waiting for this all these years, and it brings us peace to know that it is finally happening," said Lang's niece, Alexis Malletz. For Lang's family, Ream's arrest was a long time coming.
