Hello, all. We are working a pretty heinous double homicide and need whatever help you can provide. Without exposing details I shouldn't, the deaths were violent and the suspect was known to the victims. All three were undocumented immigrants. We have one of the victims positively ID'd now, but the other two seem to have no Colorado criminal history or anything in IAFIS. I have nice prints from the second victim and likely prints from the suspect (can't say from where, but am 98% sure they are the suspect's prints). Five superb prints and a few more just okay prints. All no matches in our AFIS and IAFIS.

Information leads us to believe the bad guy at least (not sure about John Doe #2) may have been or be heading to either the Phoenix area, somewhere in New Mexico or possibly even the Los Angeles area. I know, pretty vague, but if I had more I wouldn't have to post here....so if any of you in these areas (or thereabout or enroute between Denver and these areas) would be kind enough to try even some of the prints through your local systems to see if you can get a match, my agency would be very grateful and we might get a very bad person off the streets.

If you can help, please send an email to:

swiese@auroragov.org

and I will send as many prints as you will try for us. The latents are super nice, so it won't even be a struggle!

Thanks to all!

I am Sgt. Bruce Evans with the Randall County Sheriff's Office in Amarillo Tx. We have a regional AFIS system that connects the top 26 counties of the Texas Panhandle and the state AFIS system is at the Amarillo Police Department. We handle many migrant workers and would be happy to run the prints for you. If you need to reach us you can call at 806-468-5800. Let me know.

HUGE thanks to all who have replied so far. I think I have AZ covered unless anyone has a local only (not statewide) system who would be willing to search. Still looking for CA and NM help if you know anyone. Really appreciate all the help so far! This is almost better than Craig's List! ; ) Okay, okay, it IS better. And anyone with ICE or Dept. of Homeland Security contacts who can help me would be appreciated, still having some trouble reaching someone there who can/will help although I have one more DHS lead to try tomorrow.

If I could give you all a big hug I would! And of course I will let you know if, ahem, I mean WHEN we get an ID.

Sandra

just need NM now!

update on search request

Hi, all! Just wanted to shout out how wonderful you all are! Based on all the many, many wonderful offers of help, we were finally able to positively identify the second victim in this heinous double homicide. Props to the folks at ICE!

We are currently working with Interpol in contacting Mexican authorities in an attempt to identify and locate the suspect.

If you have entered these prints into your database, it would be great if you could continue to search the five unidentified latents (never know when/where this guy might turn up!), but the inked victim prints need not remain in any system. I have an inch and a half thick file of emails and some new homicides (never a dull moment) to work but will try to let those who inputted for me know individually. This, however, was the quickest since you all read the original request on here one way or another! ; )

Proud to be a part of this community and to have gotten to know even more great FP folks from around the country!!!

THANK YOU!!
