Decades Old Cold Case SOLVED Through DNA Match - The Interview Room with Chris McDonough
Join Chris and his guest, ret. Homicide Detective Bob Gilliam, as they discuss how a DNA match helped police solve a 33-year-old cold case.
Julia Hernandez-Santiago, 26, was found murdered in Carlsbad, Calif, 36 years ago. On the morning of Oct. 10, 1987, a passerby found Julia’s body on an ivy-covered hillside in a La Costa neighborhood, near Alga Road, in Carlsbad, Calif. The victim had been raped and strangled. The day of the murder, Julia went to a medical appointment. Afterward, she rode a bus back to her neighborhood. She got off the bus, stopped at a store, and was walking home when she was attacked. At the time of the killing, DNA was collected from the victim. But the suspect was unknown. And no arrests were ever made.
Find out how this case was recently solved by watching this video.
Bob Gilliam's Bio:
His career began in the late 70’s at the San Marino Police Dept, then he worked for the Oceanside, Calif. Police Department. By the mid-1980s he was a Carlsbad (Calif.) police detective, who worked several high-profile murder cases. Bob was the lead detective on the unsolved murder of Julia Hernandez-Santiago (this case). He was the lead investigator on the Ron Ruse murder. San Diegans will remember this case. The perpetrator, Linda Ricchio, was a college student when she gunned down her ex-boyfriend and killed him. She was dubbed the “fatal attraction killer.” Later in his career, he was a detective assigned to the Wyoming Attorney General’s Office crime task force. He worked for a decade at the Denver Police Department, he completed the FBI National Academy (2011), and most recently was the Teton County Undersheriff in Jackson Hole, WY.

Bob was an incredibly interesting guest. I hope you have him back to review other cases he worked on during his career. I love seeing these cold cases get solved. I gives these families some answers.
I remember that as well. We met his family. When my brother was killed in the line of duty in 1999 we met the same families over and over at the law officers memorial ceremony. People don’t realize how terribly dangerous it is to be LE by the border. My brother was a border patrol agent out of El Cajon.

Hi Chris and Karen. I'm on the replay crew here from Toronto Canada. Thank you for bringing on Bob Gilliam. What a fabulous storyteller! I was so riveted to his vivid recollections that everything around me just ceased to exist! I would love to see Bob come back, as well as other friends/colleagues of yours to talk about other cases. Wonderful stream tonight. Thank you Chris and I wish you, Karen and Buddy a great week!
God bless detectives who stay on cases. No substitute for good police work.
What an interesting conversation! I'm reminded as I am everytime I watch this podcast, how important law enforcement people are and this panel is no exception! Thank you both for your service! ❤
This was an excellent episode; I love hearing the behind the scenes details, and I so admire Bob (and all law enforcement) in his determination to solve this case.
I could listen to Bob for hours. Need him on again. Great episode!
Bob Gilliam…you are a incredibly, hard working detective. You really tried to bring Julia justice. I’m so glad justice has been served. I lived in Carlsbad for 32 years and recognized all streets mentioned. Chris McDonough…you rock😎
Mr. Gilliam is fantastic! I hope we hear from him again very soon. Thank you for another amazing program!
I hope Julia’s family knows that justice was served at last.
Great episode. Incredible and interesting conversation with Bill. Thank you for keeping Julia in your memory and getting justice for her. 👏⚖️❤️🤗🙏
When Bob mentioned Linda having a car stashed away waiting for her I thought of the Idaho 4…bc of the steam tunnels, which are actually quite nice inside, under the entirety of the university…they even run in front of & around the King Rd house. Mediums have said that Bryan parked over a half a mile away & walked…but he wasn’t seen walking on any cameras. Hmmmm….

I am impressed the both the professionalism and caring that made the verdict happen. In today's climate I am not convinced that neither nation's politics and political mores would be taken as far for this illegal who was working here today. Their professionalism and sense of justice hopefully is alive and well in the men and women who followed them in their careers now 2023. Thank you for seeing justice done when you could. I am certain a family in Mexico is glad you could justice to Julia also.
Hello everyone my first session - excited
Fascinating interview. Thank you!
Thank God this case is solved and justice will be served, May Julia rest in peace. Thank you to all the law enforcement officers coming to together to solve the mystery. Great work.
Great interview! Much respect to your guest, for never forgetting, the forgotten. I like to believe truth and justice will always win!

I love your channel. But as someone who queues up a playlist and listens to the videos in my car, please consider eliminating the siren in the intro. It's always unnerving because I have to look around quick to ensure it's not a real siren. Thank you and keep up the interesting content!
