San Antonio 1989 cold case solved — arrest shocks community

Описание: San Antonio 1989 cold case solved — arrest shocks community

A chilly morning in 2010 began with an unusual disturbance on a quiet street in Huntington Beach, California. Three unmarked police cars silently pulled up in front of an old single-story apartment, nestled among rows of palm trees and beachside sand. Curious neighbors peeked through their curtains as officers fanned out, tightly securing the perimeter, their voices lowered over radios. Inside, Joseph Sun, in his forties, was preparing breakfast—a monotonous routine for a reclusive man with no family and no one who paid much attention in the neighborhood.

A rapid knock came at 7:41 a.m., shattering the familiar silence. “Joseph Sun, this is San Antonio police in coordination with Huntington Beach Police. We have a warrant for your arrest in connection with the disappearance of Valerie Peña in 1989.” The officers later recounted that Sun froze for a few seconds, his hand gripping the mug tightly on the kitchen counter, his face showing no emotion—as if this moment had quietly followed him for more than twenty years.
