Solving The Lina Reyes-Geddes Cold Case Homicide After 24 Years - Detective Brian Davis SBI Pt 1

Lina Reyes-Davis went missing on April 8th, 1998. At the time she lived in Youngstown, Ohio, with her husband, Edward Geddes.

12 days later, over 2,000 miles away in a remote area just north of Lake Powell, Utah, two men found a body by the side of the road.

But no one knew it was Lina.

Her body had been tied up, frozen, wrapped in plastic and duct tape, placed in a sleeping bag all rolled up in some carpet. And her fingertips had been removed so investigators could not identify her by fingerprints.

Her "loving husband" never reported her missing. The only way authorities knew to begin looking for her was because one of her relatives in Mexico called the Youngstown PD and said she had never made it to visit them.

Lina had disappeared and her husband, Edward committed suicide 3 yrs later. Did the guilt get to him?

Fast forward 20 years. Investigators from the Utah State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) had reopened the case several times with no breakthroughs. The Maidenwater Jane Doe case remained unsolved.

Detective Brian Davis was assigned the case in 2016.

How did he solve the case? By teaming up with other detectives and experts to finally put all the pieces together!
