The Valley Intruder : TSAI-LIAN YU : Monterey Park, March 17
Police say that on the same evening, less than an hour after Miss Okazaki was murdered and less than two miles away in Monterey Park, the same assailant dragged Tsai-Lian Yu from her car and shot her repeatedly. He drove away from the lightly traveled, well-lit neighborhood, leaving his victim’s car behind.
The 30-year-old student lived with her family in a middle-income neighborhood in Monterey Park.
Family members say her death is still a “very painful subject.”
A sister said in Chinese that they did not want to talk about “this misfortune that has visited upon our family.”
