They're still investing this? I wonder why they keep this case open while presumably closing many other unsolved cases throughout the years.

They’re still investing this?

I doubt someone has been actively investigating the case for the last 27 years, but murder has no statute of limitations so there isn't any reason to close the case until it's solved.

It's not uncommon for cases to just be left open for decades, and it is common for cases that have been left open for decades to be randomly picked back up when some new method of investigation can be used or new evidence found, sometimes leading to arrests for crimes comitted even 40 years ago.

Unsolved cases don't typically get closed. And when they eventually get solved, it hits the news. You've read many stories like it, for sure.

In this case, it sounds like there is new evidence. No big mystery.

Orlando anderson's uncle Keefe D said they were in the car and Anderson was the shooter. Anderson was in an altercation that night with Pac and death row over a stolen chain. They were crips and death row were mob pirus bloods. It was just some gangbanger shit unfortunately. Anderson was later killed in another altercation.
