In January 1982, a five-year-old girl named Anne Pham was snatched while walking to her kindergarten class in Seaside, California, and subsequently discovered murdered. Decades later in 2020, local law enforcement and cold case investigators utilized modern DNA technology and genetic genealogy to re-examine the historical evidence. This advanced testing ultimately pointed toward Robert John Lanoue, a Nevada resident who lived near the victim at the time of the incident. Consequently, authorities formally charged the seventy-year-old suspect with first-degree murder, alongside special allegations of kidnapping and child abuse. Lanoue, who was already incarcerated in Nevada for violating his parole, agreed to be extradited back to California to face these charges.
