VICTORVILLE, California (KABC) — Nearly 25 years after an Adelanto woman disappeared from a Victorville parking lot, investigators have made an arrest in her killing, authorities said.
Suzanne Sites-Fenton was last seen in April 2001 after leaving her job at Mervyn’s to take a break, according to detectives. Her husband reported her missing when she didn’t come home that night.
The following day, her car was found abandoned, and her body was discovered in a remote area of Hesperia.
Investigators said Sites-Fenton had been kidnapped, sexually assaulted and shot. Cold case homicide detectives recently identified the suspect as Raymond Silva Gonzales, 51, of Hesperia.
Detectives arrested Gonzales on Thursday. He is being held without bail.
Authorities have not released further details about the investigation or what led detectives to identify Gonzales as a suspect after more than two decades.
