When Lisa Valdez was found stabbed to death in her San Francisco condo, investigators quickly exhausted all their leads. It took them 13 years before they would find a match to the DNS left behind by the killer.

Not just guys. Being stalked by a disturbed ex is bad enough and as a result I had to move many states away and only because a judge listened with the help of a lawyer who went to high-school with the stalker did I have false charges dropped and only a few permanent scars as opposed to my life being taken. It's rather terrifying looking back realizing how bias the judicial system is and how lucky I was to at the least escape a prison sentence with a conviction for violence when I'm anything but.

@@davidpawson7393 I do not doubt you for a second. I’ve never personally seen it, so we aren’t always proactive in our personal stories to see it from a man’s perspective. But I’m sure it’s still horrifying. It’s exhausting. They call you 30, times a day, drive past your house a dozen times a day, call all your friends, checking everyone’s house to see if you’re there, parking in front of your house, following your child’s school bus, and the cops allow literal years to go by before you finally get to court and the cops can admit that you do indeed have someone stalking you. It will drain your whole life and steal all of your peace and sanity and emotional strength. Being wrongfully accused of stalking would have me feeling like I’m in the Twilight Zone. Just unreal. I’m sorry you had to move away from your people. That would hurt a lot. They take it more seriously these days than they did when I went through it, but false allegations are disgusting. Nobody would listen to me, and that BS will make them listen even less.

It's crazy to think that LE never even considered him as a suspect. Clearly limiting the pool of possible murderers is a bad idea because they forfeit the opportunity to get an alibi or dna confirmation.

@86crud 8 ай бұрын

You know, now that you mention it, it really is pretty crazy how often we see that happen. Either never even considered, or quickly removed from the suspect pool by some flimsy alibi or other failure to think logically. I can see that being specific to certain departments, absolutely. But man when it actually looks suspicious or obvious, like he’s the first to find the body, or a very recent ex, just built a new gazebo in his yard, been scratched half to death, how they overlook these things is just crazy.

I’m confused why they weren’t able to be as thorough in collecting evidence at the crime scene because of the pressure to solve the case. That doesn’t make a lot of sense to me. If they are good , they just tell the public that the more thorough they are the better chance they have of catching the perp. I’m sure, if given the choice, Lisa’s family would say they’d rather wait longer than for the cops to shirk doing a complete investigation including collection and processing of everything!!! Anthony IS right about one thing though, the Police did screw up big time by NOT at least taking his fingerprints at the time which would have been enough to get DNA and the case solved quickly! The call he made 2 days after the murder was just to cover his butt so if suspected he could point to it and claim he’d never have called if he had killed her! I’ve seen this happen quite a bit actually.
