Law enforcement officials are compiling information in the 26-year-old unsolved murder of Fargo's Billy Wolf.
Since 1978, investigators have accumulated thousands of pages of information regarding the murder, and they're putting it all in book form to aid their ongoing investigation, said Clay County Sheriff Bill Bergquist.
He said investigators have not developed new information in Wolf's murder case.
The grisly murder of 21-year-old Billy Wolf remains an open investigation, he said.
Wolf's severed body was found in the Red River about 10 miles north of Moorhead in August 1978.

His body was cut in half and stuffed in two trash bags. Authorities determined Wolf died of stab wounds around his neck.
Shortly after the murder, a grand jury indicted Wolf's father, William, but prosecutors later dropped the charges fearing their case wasn't strong enough to convict him.
In 1987, a team of investigators went back to the beginning of the Wolf case and generated fresh leads that gave them enough information to build a different theory.
They started focusing on Wolf's murder as drug related and involving more than one person.
