A Nebraska man who disappeared while on parole for a 1986 murder was arrested Sunday near Waterloo, Iowa.
Peter Wade Suffredini, 63, was arrested by the Black Hawk County Sheriff’s Office in Iowa at about 9:45 p.m. Sunday, according to an arrest log. Before being paroled last year, Suffredini was serving a sentence of 30 years to life for murder.
It’s unclear how long Suffredini was on the run before he was arrested. According to the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services, he was paroled in August 2023.
Suffredini pleaded no contest to charges of second-degree murder, robbery and use of a firearm to commit a felony in connection with the 1986 slaying of 24-year-old construction worker Samuel co*ker. co*ker’s body was found at a rest stop near Sutherland, Nebraska, in April 1986. He had been robbed and shot five times.
