Press Release |
||
On July 20, 2009 the Sonoma County Sheriff's Office became aware that 62 year-old Joseph Henry Burgess had been killed in a shooting in
Burgess had previously been identified as a person of interest in the 2004 slayings of Jason Allen and Lindsay Cutshall on a beach in
Both items were examined by the California Department of Justice Crime Lab. The DNA sample from Burgess did not match any of the DNA evidence seized from the Jenner crime scene in 2004. Additionally the .45 caliber round did not match existing evidence we have regarding the weapon used in the Jenner homicides. While analysis of this evidence does not implicate Burgess in the Jenner homicides, it does not exclude him either and he will continue to be a person of interest as we continue to investigate this case.
Prepared by Captain Matt McCaffrey.
Any further questions should be directed to Captain Matt McCaffrey (707) 565-3920. Reference crime report #040818-034.
