CA - Jazzmine Walsh, 23, shot to death, Long Beach, 25 July 2013

This was an especially brazen crime. The young mother was murdered on her way to celebrate her son's third birthday. She had been scheduled to testify against a man in a probation violation case, and her 16-year old friend conspired with the defendant to kill her, according to Long Beach police.

The article also contains details about an arrest in a cold case, the murder of a grandmother three years ago.

Two of the men suspected in Jazzmine Walsh's killing were convicted in 2016 of murdering Leam Sovanasy, a 76-year old grandmother, in her home during a botched robbery in 2009. They were sentenced to life without parole.

I don't know if there will be any action on Walsh's case. I will keep checking, as there are two other people also charged in that murder.

I must have misspelled the name of the victim in my previous posts.
It's Jazzmine Wash, not Walsh.

That's OK @JoeFromLB I'd have never heard of this case. Plus we are allowed "Sometimers". Sometimes we make a mistake. We ain't getting no Alzheimers.

Such a brutal crime, on a witness, but he savagely murders elderly women as well.
