Tony Garcia lived for decades in Ventura County just miles from the crime scenes until DNA evidence finally linked him to the deaths, authorities said.
A Southern California man was charged Thursday with killing two women in 1981 after DNA evidence linked him to the crimes, prosecutors announced Thursday.
“Personnel responded to the scene and extinguished the blaze, but they located Lisa’s deceased body in the bathtub, in the bathroom,” he said at a news conference Thursday.Garcia lived for decades only a few miles away from the crime scenes until he finally was linked to the killings, authorities said.
In 2004, investigators determined that the same person killed the women but couldn’t find a DNA match in a law enforcement database.Authorities said Garcia became a suspect in 2019 after cold case investigators turned to genealogical DNA, which compares crime scene DNA with commercial databases that might include profiles submitted by relatives of the killer.
