MOUNTAIN VIEW -- Police in Mountain View on Monday confirmed the recent arrest of a suspect in connection with the nearly 30-year-old cold case homicide of Laurie Houts, according to authorities.
When the boyfriend asked Woodward if he killed her with police listening in, he asked what the investigators knew. Although Woodward's fingerprints were located on the outside of Houts' car, investigators in 1992 were never able to show he was inside the vehicle. Beginning in late 2020, detectives started to re-examine the Houts case, re-submitting items from the investigation to the Santa Clara County Crime Lab for renewed analysis. Police said DNA samples collected from evidence at the scene came back matching Woodward's DNA.
Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen thanked the Mountain View Police Department, the DA Cold Case Unit, and the DA Crime Lab criminalists whose work led to the charge.
