Sounds like they triangulated him via broader family DNA.

Genetic geneology is wild. Lots of local people know the people involved in this case. Everyone is flabbergasted


What was he doing at 21? Was he in college (local?), home on break, still living at home? And the ex gf whose mom this was, was she away at college when this happened?

Thanks for the link. It's haunting that the dad/husband seemingly knew all along that it was boyfriend. He warned his daughter about him before the murder even happened. I don't believe in afterlife but man I wish I did so I could think that wherever the dad/husband is, he sees this all playing out finally.


The dad was a suspect! (of course he was....it's usually the husband in these cases)

And I'm sure friends/family/acquaintances whispered about him and his potential culpability. Having to live with that and then dying before justice is served simply isn't fair.

He remarried and has DV charges in 2021

So sad.

It is crazy that he was mentioned early on and there were a couple of tips and he was never even interviewed.

Sad story.

So I wonder why killed her?

Did he break in the house and she caught him?

Was he stealing from them?

Was he having an affair with her?

So many questions!

What is the motive? Was he stalking her?

I was not living in DC at the time and don't remember this case, but it was local and I am sure many of you did. Didn't see anything on it in the forums.
