In 2008, a CSUN student who was just weeks away from graduating was fatally shot in South L.A., along with his friend. Family continues to call for justice in the unsolved cold case.
LOS ANGELES -- Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascón on Monday joined family members of Cliff Hibbert Jr., a 22-year-old CSUN student who was shot and killed 14 years ago.
"The reality is that the solvability of homicides in this country is abysmal and even in our county sometimes is around 50%," said Gascón. "Every case won't have DNA, every case won't have surveillance cameras, every case won't have fingerprint evidence," said Tiffiny Blacknell, a deputy district attorney."Some cases will be solved by eyewitnesses. And unless we build trust in communities who witness these crimes, the solve rate will continue to be low."
