A cash reward held in trust should also come with a free standing offer of immunity. If someone wants to get out of gang life, having a little nest egg from which to relocate/start a new life would be much more tempting.
I applaud the decision to wait on a charge. Once a not guilty verdict is found, there's no chance for a retrial. Better to let this scum bag worry each day, knowing his days are numbered.

I believe a $10,000 reward was offered but you should check that out with the MVPD. Hopefully someone will want to clear their conscience and come forward.

Never going to happen. I'm sure the suspect is laughing at the MVPD, knowing they can't make it stick, and probably never will. It's just as well that they won't mention the suspect's name, because if "all roads lead to Rome", and it's pretty obvious who the killer is, then I'm sure that someone would just finish the job, and clean this scumbag out of the gene pool. Sooner or later, that may happen, as well. Wait and see...

So if MVPD found out who did it for the 2005 case. Why cant they solve this one. I think they need to do a better job instead of just busting people for small things.

Ok the MVPD cant solve crimes but they will pull me over with 3 cop cars carrying 5 cops total at night for having a air freshener hanging from my rear view mirror like im a murderer. Only to let me go after harassing me for 30min to make sure I had a clean record. And they say they need more cops? Really? seems like every time i get pulled over there are at least 3 cops to deal with me only to let me go after they find out I have a clean record. Go figure? My tax dollars at work.

Are you an African American, wow? Used to happen to my daughter everytime she came into Mountain View. Happened right in front of my house one day so i went out to confront the officer with his dog to ask him what the problem was. He walked away , said no problem , got in his car and left. He knew I wasnt going to let him harass my daughter for no reason.

Annonymese, youre an idiot and you dont know what youre talking about!! And there are people that know exactly what happened. Jeff and his family didnt deserve this and there needs to be some justice for them. Im waiting and hoping for the day that they charge the people that did this, or they at least get some street justice. R.I.P. Jeff

Annonymese....Your a Joke. Show some class, I'm a minotity myself. This is not a race issue. If you knew Jeff then you would know that he is not some rich white kid trying to be hood. Your comment makes me laugh more than it angers me, because your so ignorant.

Jeff was a great friend and has been sorely missed. His funeral was absolutely packed with people who loved him and his death has been a living nightmare for anyone who had the pleasure of knowing him. I have faith that justice will be served...I don't care how long it takes. I will be waiting.
