Is this page still updating and uploading information. There is a case on here I am curious about. Any suggestions
ReplyDeleteIs this page still updating and uploading information. There is a case on here I am curious about. Any suggestions
ReplyDeleteHello, what case are you interested in? I am currently researching two specific cases, which one are you wanting more information on?
DeleteI may have unpublished info that I can update this week or can add it to my list.
A murder in Santa Paula 1994 Eric Velasquez's from Ventura what's the status.
ReplyDeleteWhy is this site of unsolved murder cases not updated?!! Eric Velasquez murder is not on your list!!!
DeleteHas anything been done about any of the 2004 unsolved murder of Randy Garner?
ReplyDeletethis was my dads case, i’m curious as well
DeleteI have no clue I am interested in a case from 96. I know there will pretty much be no further info on it
ReplyDeleteWhen is update gonna post
ReplyDeleteAre any of these related to the Golden State Killer that was recently caught (2018)?
ReplyDeleteYes, the one about Charlene and Lyman Smith.
DeleteHere's the link:

ReplyDeleteHow were Oxnard people Thomas Compton, Elizabeth Castro Renteria, Ralph Ismael Delacerda, Elizabeth Ayala, Miguel Rombulo Sanchez, Jose Reyes, and Benjamin Rojelio like them showing up, died?
ReplyDeleteDid they ever solve the death of Elizabeth Salas in 2000? I knew her when she lived here in the A.V
ReplyDeleteWho are you ? Because if you knew her you would’ve been I contact w her family .I hope you genuinely care.
DeleteHow Come the cold cases stop at 2009?
ReplyDeleteMan how I wish someone had more information on Walter Rodolfo Vela 2006. That was my brother... all these years later bro and nothing.....
ReplyDeleteSometimes a phone call to homicide requesting update as the brother, maybe request to meet with detective who was on case, can be enough to renew interest. At the very least it will remind them of the case and humanize the victim, your brother, which may lead into renewing interest.
DeleteI'm looking for any information on an incident that might have happened in camarillo, in 1993 to 1995 in the summer months. I can't find any information because it's so far back and those newspapers don't exist. Wasn't sure if anyone on the inside had any info or can find any reports of someone being abducted or attempted abduction. It most likely happened in 1994 to 1995, summer months. Anyway, thank you. Ill keep looking.
ReplyDeleteWhy isn't Eric Velasquez death in Santa Paula 1994 on here which is now a cold case and unsolved murder?
ReplyDelete
