In 1999 and 2000, victims were violently assaulted under false pretenses — one at a park and ride, another at an apartment. DNA collected decades ago was matched in 2023 to Michael Lance Gamez, leading to his arrest in 2024. He pleaded guilty to aggravated sexual assault in 2026 and received a 15-year sentence. This case proves how forensic science and persistence can deliver justice even after decades have passed. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
