My sister's dead; why are police so incurious?
Do the DNA testing on Richard Marc Evonitz! When the original articles were written, I was very skeptical of The Free Lance-Star's motives. I thought that it was a ploy to sell more papers by stirring the pot around some sensational murders, including that of my twin sister, Alicia Reynolds ["Mum doesn't cut it," Jan. 24].
Regardless of your motives, I am stunned by the lack of response from the Virginia State Police to your stories. I am certain that the investigation into my sister's death has been difficult and time-consuming.
Now is the time to correct those mistakes, if any, by doing the DNA testing.
If Evonitz murdered my sister, I would like to know for sure.

Absolutely, we want the Free Lance Star to get an
answer from the State Police. And if the State
Police will not answer, we must know that as well.
What goes on here? Send a reporter to State
Police Headquarters right away and take a photographer with you. I am sorry to hear of such
dereliction of duty.
That's what I recall from the fl-s story

That website does not credit any sources of the information posted, therefore its truthfulness must be questioned. Just because you read it on the internet, don't make it so.

I was under the impression that Evonitz' DNA would be checked on all the unsolved murders, not only in our area, but surrounding jurisdictions as well. I cannot understand why that did not take place immediately after his death. I'm sure the Showalter family would like to have closure on this, and they deserve to have that peace of mind.
