SEASIDE — A 40-year-old cold case involving the murder of 5-year-old Anne-Sang Thi Pham, who was strangled to death and dumped in brush in Fort Ord in 1982, has been reopened.
Anne-Sang was walking to her kindergarten class on the morning of Jan. 21, 1982, when she was abducted and murdered. Her body was discovered a couple of days later in what was at the time Fort Ord property near South Boundary Road. An autopsy revealed she had been strangled. Within days of her killing, Anne-Sang’s older brother sat down with a Monterey Herald reporter and talked about his little sister, her shyness and her sensitivity. At the beginning of the school year, Anne-Sang’s mother would walk her to school every day. But at some point Anne-Sang told her mother, “stay home, mom. I can walk by myself,” recounted her big brother, Kheu Van Pham.
The family had moved to Seaside so Tuong Pham could make a living as a fisherman. Four years after moving to the Monterey Peninsula, their daughter was savagely murdered.
