The woman WAS FOUND in her own apartment. The DISTURBING TRUTH was discovered only 40 years later 

The woman WAS FOUND in her own apartment. The DISTURBING TRUTH was discovered only 40 years later 

a young woman was found in her own apartment police began an investigation but they were unable to find any clues it took a full 40 years before a breakthrough was finally made in the case but along with the truth detectives also received new alarming facts Robin Brooks was born on March 30th 1960 in the state of Virginia in her childhood she moved with her family to the small town of Highland located in the state of New York Robin was a cheerful and sociable person had many friends and always knew how to find common ground with people she also

had an older sister Mariah with whom she was very close after school Robin decided to move to California in addition to the state’s climate attracting her the young woman had another weighty reason to move shortly before that her sister also went there and Robin decided to follow her the young woman rented in an apartment in the city of Sacramento and got a job there several months later she had the opportunity to move to a residential complex where her sister lived with her boyfriend in addition to the fact that

the apartments were very significantly better Robin could spend more time with Mariah and shortly before 20th birthday she decided to move the young woman rented a separate apartment and in order to pay the rent she had to take two jobs one of them was a cashier position at a donut shop located just a few meters from her residential complex Robin chose the evening shift to combine it with her second job the young woman lived in this complex for about one and a half months and during this time managed to make many friends both at

work and Beyond she was also glad to have the opportunity to see her sister every day again on April 24th 1980 Robin was supposed to start her shift at the donut shop at 4 pm but to the surprise of her colleagues she never showed up this was very strange because during her time working there she never missed her chefs and usually came even earlier than scheduled the employees waited for several hours and eventually one of them decided to go to Robin’s apartment the colleague knocked on the door but there was only

silence and response after several unsuccessful attempts he returned this door and told them that the young woman was not responding colleagues were deeply concerned about this fact assuming that something may have happened to Robin otherwise she would have called to report why she couldn’t come to work during the short time she spent in their store she had become friends with all the employees and they were genuinely worried about her colleagues considered calling the police but quickly realized that law enforcement wouldn’t search for

Robin because of missing a work shift then one of them suggested a non-standard solution he offered to open the entrance door to her apartment to check if everything was okay with her he and other colleagues headed to her home colleagues knocked on the door for a few minutes and ultimately decided to break in when they were successful a shocking scene unfolded before them Robin was lying on her water bed in the living room and everything around her was covered in blood colleagues immediately called the police and arriving officers

confirmed that the young woman was dead her body had numerous tab wounds apparently inflicted by an unknown assailant who attacked her with a knife and punctured the water mattress several times causing its contents to spill onto the floor after examining the crime scene the police established that the entrance Door had no signs of a break-in until Robin’s colleagues opened it the back door was also locked from the inside leading them to believe that the killer entered the apartment through a window soon forensic experts found evidence of

this Theory by discovering fingerprints on the windowsill medical examiners determined that the victim had been sexually assaulted and obtained the perpetrator’s biological material the apartment also contains small traces of blood that did not match Robin’s blood type detectives concluded that the killer had cut himself during the attack and the blood samples were sent to a laboratory unfortunately DNA analysis was not available in the 1980s so they could not use this evidence investigators began interviewing

acquaintances of the victim starting with her colleagues they said that the young woman had finished her shift at midnight the day before and went home she was in a good mood joking around and generally behaved as usual nothing indicated trouble at that moment her colleagues added an interesting fact that day Robin mentioned that she had washed her bedding before going to work and was worried if it would dry before she returned the bed in the victim’s apartment was not made leading detectives to conclude that the killer attacked her shortly

after she returned home her sister also reported something troubling a few days before her death Robin mentioned that she was being followed by a man she did not provide any details about this person that could help identify him but she said he had come to her store several times and behaved strangely trying to win her affection however he had not done anything to make Robin fear for her safety so she did not take it seriously the police were unable to identify this person because they had no characteristics to go on they continued

their investigation talked to the victim’s neighbors but they did not have any leads none of them heard any screams or sounds of struggle that night the neighbors also did not see anyone unfamiliar visiting the victim in addition investigators learned that Robin did not go straight home from work that night she went to a party with her friends for a while and laughs soon after according to her acquaintances she went home alone and there were no conflicts or strange situations at the party the police talked to everyone who

was there and concluded that they were probably not involved in her murder ultimately the detectives hit a dead end they had no potential suspects Robin got along well with her neighbors and colleagues she had no boyfriend and there were no people from her past who might have wished her harm blood and biological materials at the time could not lead them to the Killer and fingerprint matching against existing databases yielded no results investigators believed that the murderer was the persistent visitor to the store

that Robin had mentioned according to their Theory the man followed the victim from work to her home learning her exact address the next day he broke into her apartment through a window while she was at the store and waited when Robin came home he attacked her subjected her to violence and killed her then fled despite the complete lack of evidence the investigation continued for some time until It ultimately stalled it was only in 2004 24 years after the murder that the investigation was reopened by that time DNA analysis had become a

widely used technology and detectives hoped it would help them identify the Killer they send blood and biological material to a laboratory where experts extracted a DNA profile and loaded it into the FBI database but no matches were found this meant that the killer had not been previously convicted of a serious crime or that it happened before DNA collection was mandatory for such offenders despite this a troubling Discovery awaited investigators in the California state database the DNA profiled the killer matched another

crime that occurred three weeks before Robin’s death at that time an unknown man had entered another young woman’s home assaulted her and fled leaving the victim alive it all happened at night and the young woman did not see the attacker’s face she immediately called the police and forensic experts were able to extract biological material from the man detectives tried to find new leads in this case to finally identify Robin’s killer but all of their attempts LED them nowhere eventually the case went cold again and

investigators were left periodically checking the DNA profile against databases in case the killer came into police View and his DNA was added there this continued until 2017 when detectives heard about a new method called DNA phenotyping its Essence is that genetics experts study a DNA sample and create an approximate portrait of the suspect based on their interpretation of the data obtained this method is not precise and rather serves as an auxiliary guideline for police with the help of such a portrait investigators can look closely at

similar suspects or exclude someone from the list detectives turned to parabon nanolabs which conducted such research and soon they prepared an approximate portrait of the killer he turned out to be a man of African descent but investigators could not find anyone similar among all the people who even remotely appeared in the case parabon Nano Labs prepared two portraits one showed with the suspect might have looked like in 1980 and the other in 2017.

 both images were posted in the media hoping to get new leads relatives of Robin also had hope of finally finding out the truth so they decided to offer a reward of ten thousand dollars for any information about this person that would help find him the police received several tips but they all LED nowhere the identity of the real criminal remained a mystery to them despite this investigators and Robin’s relatives were not going to give up in 2020 this case became one of the unsolved murders for which additional funding was allocated by that time a new

DNA analysis tool was actively being used which allowed even distant relatives of the DNA sample owner to be found for this at least one person related to him by kinship had to be in public or state DNA databases the robin killer sample was handed over to experts from Paramount nanolabs and they waited it took them several months to study all possible relatives of this criminal traced their genealogies and finally find a suitable suspect as a result the detectives finally got a name 71 year old Phillip Wilson

but the research results did not confirm his guilt the police needed to take his DNA and compare it with the sample found in the victim’s apartment they learned the address of this man and began to monitor him considering that by law a person is not required to provide their DNA sample the police have to resort to some tricks they often try to get some item that the suspect has come into contact with it can be a water bottle a cigarette butt and so on having obtained what they needed investigators handed over to experts

when extracted DNA sample in Wilson’s case detectives also did the same after obtaining an item with his DNA they sent it to the laboratory experts found a complete match four decades later they finally found the probable killer and on February 24th of the same year he was arrested the man denied his involvement in the murder but the evidence spoke against him the police also took his fingerprints which matched those found on the victim’s windowsill studying his biography the detectives learned a lot of interesting facts at

the time of Robin’s murder the man was 31 years old and lived just a few streets from her complex in addition Wilson was a regular visitor to the donut shop where the victim worked this confirmed the police’s early theory that the killer was the same unknown stalker who bothered the young woman at work the man had no serious criminal history which explained the absence of his DNA and fingerprints in the databases after his arrest preparations for the trial began which dragged on for several years the process only began in 2022 and

by that time Wilson and his lawyers have prepared a new defense line according to yet on that night there was a consensual relationship between Philip and Robin after which the man went home and someone else broke into the young woman’s apartment and killed her as for the suspect’s blood found at the crime scene his lawyer insisted that Wilson injured himself at work and the wound opened up when he was at Robin’s home the prosecution considered this version of events absurd first of all the victim was not in a romantic relationship with

anyone moreover she complained about a strange man who was stalking her at work and that man was likely Wilson the young woman was annoyed by his behavior and persistence and there was no sympathy between them secondly no other men’s DNA traces were found in the victim’s apartment it would be strange to assume that Wilson left his biological material blood and fingerprint while the killer left absolutely nothing in addition if we believe the suspect’s lawyer the young woman contacted him of her own free will but before that for

some reason she did not make the bed which had no bedding Wilson’s defense also tried to point to another suspect who could have been the killer it was Maria’s ex-boyfriend with whom she was living at the time at the time of the trial the man was no longer alive and the lawyer used this fact he tried to convince the jurors that the man was aggressive threatened Robin and her sister and also broke into the victim’s apartment however nothing could be confirmed so all these statements did not have a significant impact on the

judicial process as a result Philip Wilson was found guilty of murder his sentence was announced on his birthday the man received a life sentence without the possibility of parole currently he is experiencing many health problems so his time in prison is unlikely to be long the victim’s relatives thanked the detectives for finally bringing the case to a close her sister admitted that she still feels guilty after all Robin moved to California following her as for the young woman who Wilson assaulted three weeks before the murder the statute of

limitations had expired for that crime so the man did not receive any additional punishment for it however detectives still wonder did Wilson have other victims usually criminals who commit such horrific acts with a few weeks in between do not stop and continue to harm people it’s possible the Wilson did not plan to kill Robin he broke into her apartment and assaulted her but she saw and recognized his face because he had come to her store repeatedly fearing a prison sentence the man may have decided to commit murder
