A retired business executive has been arrested for the 1982 murder of his wife. Police say James Krauseneck used an axe to hack his sleeping wife, Cathleen, in the forehead. He then leaves his toddler daughter alone in their house all day with her dead mommy, police say.

The case stumped police for nearly four decades.
