Cold Albuquerque Case Arrest Made in Bay Area

KOAT TV - After 25 years on the run, a man accused of brutally killing his wife was finally captured on Monday. Albuquerque Police Department's Cold Case Unit uncovered the clues leading to the arrest in the Aug. 4, 1987, slaying. It's the kind of cold case that police find especially frustrating, they say, because they believe they who did it but the suspect vanished before they could put him away. Now, a quarter of a century later, they've got a break in the case and hope the suspected killer will finally face justice. Police said Diedre Brewington, 37, was shot and killed at her apartment on Coal Avenue in southwest Albuquerque. Her husband, Ronald Brewington, is the APD's main suspect. Police said the two had separated and Diedre wanted a divorce, but her husband vanished a short time later and hasn't been seen since -- until Monday. Read full story here: News New Mexico
