Authorities say they've linked an unsolved murder to an Ashland man now on death row for other homicides. 

42-year-old Shawn Grate was convicted of four murders in Ashland and Richland counties. Marion County Sheriff Tim Bailey says Grate told investigators about another victim. 

Bailey says her remains were found in 2007 and were identified through DNA testing and with the help of an anthropologist.
