On Monday, Jose Luis Garcia, 42, was arraigned for the charge of murder, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. The cold case started to crack after Garcia was arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) for a domestic assault charge in November last year. A DNA sample was collected from him during his booking and uploaded into the state DNA database. "They obtained a DNA sample from Garcia for comparison and submitted it for forensic testing," the LAPD said. "Serologists analyzed it and determined Garcia’s sample matched the unidentified donor’s sample obtained in 1996 from the body of Gladys Arellano."
