After an investigation that lasted nearly two years, Patrick David Salmon has been jailed in connection with the slaying of a 16-year-old boy that occurred more than 30 years ago during a home invasion robbery in Santa Monica.
Detectives say advances in electronic evidence gathering allowed them to center their investigation on the now 53-year-old man, who was taken into custody at his home in Shaler Township, Pennsylvania. He is being held in the Los Angeles Men’s Central Jail, with bail set at $1,050,000.
