Join Speak Up Newport on Wednesday, March 13, 2019 for a look into Newport Beach Police Department criminal investigations including cutting edge techniques used in our City to combat crime and cold case investigations.
Linda Ann O’Keefe Homicide -Nearly 46 years after the abduction and homicide of Linda Ann O’Keefe, an 11-year-old Corona del Mar girl, the NBPD have identified and arrested James Alan Neal, 72, who now faces a special circumstances murder count - making the case eligible for the death penalty. NBPD never gave up, using cutting edge techniques to solve the cold case, like DNA matching and giving Linda a voice on Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/NewportBeachPD) where tweets in Linda’s “voice” were published narrating the last hours of her life.
