Arrest made in 2007 nursing home death

LOUISVILLE, Ky. -- A cold case from 2007 came to a surprising end Monday.

The death of 84-year-old Marcelline Vale went unsolved for almost seven years until Monday, when her alleged killer confessed to the story.

David Satterfield, 34, is now charged with Vale's murder.

Police say Satterfield turned himself in Monday after asking police for a ride to the homicide office. He told police he was a certified medical technician working rounds at Parkway Medical Center the night of July 4, 2007, when he said he injected Vale with a large amount of insulin, knowing she wasn't a diabetic. Vale died four days later of an insulin overdose. WHAS11 asked detectives why Satterfield decided to come clean after almost seven years.
