Being a Sheriff Runs in The Starin Family

For centuries, Law Enforcement has been a career that included generations of families. It was often common to hear statements like “I am a police officer, as was my father and his father before him.”

coldcase Yavapai Silent Witness is assisting the Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office with the following “Cold Cases.”

On September 7, 1987 the body of Kristina Sue Reyes was found by motorists in a small ravine at the Sunset Point rest area in southern Yavapai County. Even though her body was in an advanced state of decomposition sheriff’s detectives determined that her cause of death was strangulation.

On January 10, 1988 the body of William Wear was found in his residence in Bridgeport near Cottonwood. Mr., Wear was a paraplegic and confined to a wheelchair. Mr. Wear had only been dead a short time when his body was discovered. He died of gunshot wounds and after shooting him the suspects robbed Mr. Wear.

If you have any information on either of these unsolved “Cold Cases” please call Yavapai Silent Witness. A cash reward is being offered. Call 800-932-3232 with any criminal information.
