I dated Melanie Bernas in middle school.  She was killed along with AnAngela Brosso back in 1992.  They finally made an arrest last night.

Wow, glad to hear they finally caught up to the guy. He probably thought he was in the clear!

I was in her High School Math Class when she was murdered.  I sat right in front of her.

Glad they were able to find their killer.

Where did you go to middle?  I was supposed to go to Arcadia (lilived right across the street behind the little medical center) but we moved when I was in 8th grade.

I'm with you, I just can't see how you could do this twice and never again.  I figured he was dead or in prison since there never were any similar murders discovered.

I went to Tavan for 5th and 6th and then Ingleside for middle school.

He definitely killed others, and I doubt the numbers are that low.  He stabbed a woman in 1989 at PV mall as a juvenile and was suspected of arson another time.  One sick fuck who started with heinous crimes very early in life.

Holy shit. Outstanding that he has been caught. It sucks that he had 20+ years of sunlight unfiltered by prison bars but at least he is fucked now.

They have apparently had him on the radar since 1994, but couldn't make the connection.  They finally ran some kind of undercover sting to get his DNA.  I know some of the details of how they did it, but it's not public info, so....

i think he MIGHT have meant off of the deceased?...

Quite possibly a biological deposit placed internally. External traces would be mostly washed away, according to all the best murder mystery novels. Length of immersion, depth/temp of water, etc all could play a factor in just how much evidence was dissipated.
Oh, and clothing might still retain some trace, again, depending on immersion time, etc... See "Monica's dress".

I found it interesting that he even stabbed a woman in Washington at work, then claimed she was trying to rob him.  He was acquitted!!  The boss of that company even said it all seemed strange and unbelievable.  Soon as they let him out after trial he left back to AZ.  Real serial killer here.  I wonder how many they'll tie to him.  Probably never know for sure.

If you ever get something in the mail that says you won something, ask yourself if you've committed a crime for which the police might be actively searching for you before you reply....
