Cathy Small was found stabbed to death in South Pasadena in 1986. Nearly 40 years later, her murder has been linked to serial killer William Suff, who was convicted of murdering 12 women in Riverside County from 1986 to 1991.
The decades-old slaying of Cathy Small, whose body was found in South Pasadena in 1986, is linked to serial killer William Suff, who was convicted of murdering 12 women in Riverside County from 1986 to 1991, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. During a news conference Tuesday, LA County Sheriff Robert Luna announced the "major breakthrough," calling it "long-overdue justice and closure" to Small and her family.
In 2019, the investigation into Small's death was briefly reopened after it was possibly linked to the death of a man at a home across from where Small's body was found 33 years earlier, officials said. At his home, authorities recovered several disturbing items, including pictures of women who appeared drugged and assaulted and held against their will. A newspaper article about Small's death was also found in his bedroom, according to authorities.
