Decades Old Cold Case SOLVED Through DNA Match - The Interview Room with Chris McDonough
Join Chris and his guest, ret. Homicide Detective Bob Gilliam, as they discuss how a DNA match helped police solve a 33-year-old cold case.
Julia Hernandez-Santiago, 26, was found murdered in Carlsbad, Calif, 36 years ago. On the morning of Oct. 10, 1987, a passerby found Julia’s body on an ivy-covered hillside in a La Costa neighborhood, near Alga Road, in Carlsbad, Calif. The victim had been raped and strangled. The day of the murder, Julia went to a medical appointment. Afterward, she rode a bus back to her neighborhood. She got off the bus, stopped at a store, and was walking home when she was attacked. At the time of the killing, DNA was collected from the victim. But the suspect was unknown. And no arrests were ever made.
Find out how this case was recently solved by watching this video.
Bob Gilliam's Bio:
His career began in the late 70’s at the San Marino Police Dept, then he worked for the Oceanside, Calif. Police Department. By the mid-1980s he was a Carlsbad (Calif.) police detective, who worked several high-profile murder cases. Bob was the lead detective on the unsolved murder of Julia Hernandez-Santiago (this case). He was the lead investigator on the Ron Ruse murder. San Diegans will remember this case. The perpetrator, Linda Ricchio, was a college student when she gunned down her ex-boyfriend and killed him. She was dubbed the “fatal attraction killer.” Later in his career, he was a detective assigned to the Wyoming Attorney General’s Office crime task force. He worked for a decade at the Denver Police Department, he completed the FBI National Academy (2011), and most recently was the Teton County Undersheriff in Jackson Hole, WY.
