\*Coming October 26* **In 2011, the body of a woman was discovered in a California vineyard. The scene was utterly surreal. Disturbing, yet eerily clean. It was unlike anything investigators had…
When you break it down, most homicides county and nationwide have a clear motive.
But once in a while, a murder comes along that leaves detectives bewildered.
It was surreal.
I remember having a couple of nightmares about it afterwards.
Something this gruesome is very unusual.
The body of an adult female was found inside a vineyard.
This is one of those types of murders and murder investigations that you come across maybe once, maybe never.
The coroner even said to me, "This looks like it was professionally done."
You're going back and forth saying, "Is this a serial killer?"
Much more extreme than any other case I'd ever worked on.
It, it haunted me.
It seemed the killer didn't just try to hide their own identity, but also that of the victim.
If you're never able to identify her, the case is not gonna be solved ever.
I was very adamant that this had to be who it was.
Here you go.
We got a name.
She got reconnected with a gentleman who was supposedly a doctor.

I remember vividly she was talking about a woman who was some type of leader, spiritual guide, and I think she might have joined something like a cult.
She said she was gonna leave.
She had a boyfriend, and she was gonna leave.
And I said, "I hope you're making the right decision."
