Anne Pham, a five-year-old girl, disappeared on her way to school in 1982 and was later found murdered. For decades, her case remained unsolved, causing immense grief to her family. In 2009, Seaside Police Chief Nick Borges re-examined the evidence, leading to investigations using DNA technology. In 2022, Robert John Lanoue was arrested and has since pleaded guilty to her murder. The case exemplifies the long struggle for justice that families of homicide victims face and the potential of modern forensic advancements to resolve cold cases.
"Pham's murder went unsolved for more than 40 years, until DNA evidence helped crack the case, leading to the arrest of Robert John Lanoue in 2022."
"Despite investigation, prosecutors said there were no arrests in her case for decades, leaving the family and community without closure for years."
