What do you have to say about APD's investigation into this double homocide?

Abilene Police made two arrests overnight in relation to the double homicide of Nate Moss and Tina Moreno – one of them, believed to be Moss's cousin.

Authorities picked up Yrinio Flores, 24, and Santiago Garza, 30. Robbery was the apparent motive, said Sgt. Lynn Beard of the Abilene Police Department.

The police press conference was carried live on Bigcountryhomepage.com.
24-year-old Tina Moreno and 18-year-old Nate Moss, were discovered murdered in their apartment at Pebble Creek Apartment complex one week ago. Some things were taken from the apartment.

Flores is believed to be Moss's cousin. Evidence on the scene then led police to Garza, whose name did not originally come up in the investigation. Garza was arrested Thursday by the Fisher County Sheriff's Department.

Police are thanking residents who gave information and assisted in the investigation.

"There (were) hundreds of trails to go down and hundreds of tips to follow up," said Lt. David Watkins.

Moreno's two children were discovered inside the apartment after the murders. Police say the two girls, ages 2 and 4, are recovering in protective custody. They were interviewed by Child Protective Service workers twice. The case is taking a toll on them, Beard said.

Well the APD did a good job of getting the perps off the street, now if the D.A. can just do his job and send them to prison for a long time. That however remains to be seen.

Where was all this detective "expertise" when Jennifer Servo was murdered?

Somebody told the cops who did this one. The Servo case evidently didn't have any witnesses. But someday, they will find who did it. There is no statute of limitation on murder.

Ten four, TS. I hope they can find 'em on her case. That event has caused a big iron curtain to be put up between KTAB employees and friends.

The Servo file maybe in the "unsolved" items box but I am sure that there is someone still poking around on it, just not being "out front" with the investigation. I am sure that one of these days, someone somewhere will come forward and say something or they will eventually find them with the evidence that they have already.

As for the "iron wall" that is something that most everyone in the public eye has to do at one time or another and it is happening more and more with all the nuts out there.
