On Dec. 27, 2002, 24-year-old Lindomar Gomez of Los Angeles died after being strangled, according to The Los Angeles Times Homicide Report. The entry records the date of death Gomez's age his Latino ethnicity and sex, the manner of death and lists the investigating agency as the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department.
Little additional biographical detail about Gomez appears in the public record located for this review. The Homicide Report entry is brief and does not provide a neighborhood, circumstances leading up to his death, or information about surviving family beyond a single reader comment on the Times page in which a relative requested closure and offered help with information.
The available public sources do not describe arrests, charges, or any later identification of a suspect in Gomez's death. The only agency attribution in the record is LASD; there is no public notice of a reward, no press release announcing an arrest, and no online court records located that tie a named suspect to this case. Because contemporaneous news reports, law-enforcement press releases and court records located in this search do not report an arrest or prosecution, the case remains unsolved in the public record.
If anyone has information about Lindomar Gomez's death they should contact the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department's public contacts or the LASD station that handles homicide matters.
