In a significant breakthrough, forensic genealogists have identified the dismembered remains of Vivian Moss, a victim found in a San Jose field in 1981. The Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office announced this identification after extensive genealogy work, revealing Moss was 54 at the time of her murder. The cold case unit aims to find justice for Moss and her family as they continue the pursuit of her killer. Two religious pendants were found at the crime scene, and DNA comparison with Moss' granddaughter confirmed her identity, reigniting the hopes of finding her murderer.
"Now that we've put a name to Vivian, our goal is to get justice for her and for her family."
"Her death was ruled a homicide from multiple stab wounds to the chest and dismemberment."
"This case demonstrates how advanced forensic genealogy can help solve long-standing cold cases."
"Moss was supposed to pick up her granddaughter for a visit, but never showed up, leaving the family in search for answers."
