In the meantime, investigators are looking for Depies' body or any evidence that could tie Hall to the crime. However, Police Chief Rod McCants said without any evidence aside from his confession linking Hall to Depies'disappearance, no charges will be filed. "From what Larry told us, out of all the other people we've interviewed over the years, Larry seemed the most credible with his information," Town of Menasha Police Lt. While others have confessed to kidnapping and killing Depies, Hall is the first to provide information that investigators say was not known to the public. Hall has been a "person of interest" in the disappearance of Depies for 16 years following his conviction in the 1993 kidnapping of an Illinois girl, but Wisconsin investigators couldn't speak with him about the Depies case until his appeals in the Illinois case were exhausted. The police came forward with the information Monday because it was leaking out in bits and pieces, and they wanted to clarify the story. Larry DeWayne Hall, 48, an Indiana man now serving a life sentence at a North Carolina federal prison, told Town of Menasha police last November that he abducted and murdered Depies, whose disappearance has vexed officials for almost two decades. The first credible break in the case of Lori Depies' disappearance 19 years ago has come in a jailhouse confession from a convicted kidnapper - a former janitor who traveled widely as a Civil War re-enactor and has been questioned in numerous disappearances of young females.
