On May 22, 2003, at a residence listed as 17728 Halsted Street in Northridge, California, 63-year-old Gino Hamilton was found dead after having been strangled, according to Los Angeles County coroner records. The coroner's listing records his age, race gender cause of death and the date of death as May 22, 2003. The case is indexed in the Los Angeles Times Homicide Report archive with the investigating agency noted as DEVON.
Beyond the coroner summary, publicly available record summaries for this incident are sparse. The Los Angeles Times archive entry provides the central verified facts but does not detail the circumstances leading up to Hamilton's death, any suspect descriptions, witness accounts, or investigative developments. I did not find news stories, police press releases, or court records linked to an arrest, charge, or prosecution for this homicide in the sources reviewed.
As of the records located, there is no public record in the consulted sources indicating that anyone was arrested, charged or convicted in connection with Gino Hamilton's death. The case therefore remains unsolved in the materials reviewed here; no closures or identifications of a deceased suspect were reported in the sources checked. Anyone with information about this case should contact the Los Angeles County law enforcement agency listed on the coroner entry or the Los Angeles County Department of Medical Examiner for additional case details and referral to the proper investigative unit.
