I thought this case was solved and they found the killer! This is so unfortunate. After all the pain this family went through, they still do not know who killed their daughter. I recall that in the area where she was murdered, there were other similar cases, maybe the evil work of a serial killer?

It seems like the suspect may end up free since the only evidence they have against him is circumstantial evidence.
QUOTE WASHINGTON - There are plenty of witnesses in the case against an imprisoned Salvadoran immigrant accused of killing former D.C. Intern Chandra Levy - the ex-girlfriend who says she was beaten, other women he's convicted of attacking and a man believed to be a fellow inmate.
But none of the dozen prosecution witnesses outlined in a March 3 affidavit actually saw the attack on the young woman in a Washington park about eight years ago. Only two directly link Ingmar Guandique, who's expected to arrive in Washington in the next few weeks, to Levy's death.
Prosecutors have nailed convictions in other cases with no physical evidence and only secondhand or circumstantial witness accounts. New evidence could also emerge in the Levy case.
But without forensic evidence linking Levy and Guandique or an eyewitness account, the Levy case offers weaknesses the defense could pounce on, say several attorneys not connected to the case.
"It's long on witnesses and short on direct evidence that Guandique had anything to do with this," said David Benowitz, a criminal defense attorney who once worked as a public defender in the District of Columbia....

After nine years and Condit's fall, Levy trial begins

Do you all remember this case? How heartbreaking for the parents! I hope justice is served.
QUOTE WASHINGTON (AP) — More than nine years after the disappearance of Washington intern Chandra Levy generated headlines around the world, the man accused of killing her is finally scheduled to stand trial.
Ingmar Guandique is accused of murder and kidnapping among other charges. Authorities allege he attacked Levy while she was jogging alone in Rock Creek Park in May 2001.
For months after her disappearance, police focused their attention on then-Congressman Gary Condit, a California Democrat. Authorities no longer believe Condit — who was romantically linked to Levy — had anything to do with her death... Source 2q

I'm old enough to remember this case. What stood out to me was the media's focus on her relationships - it was sensational news. If there wasn't that aspect to it her story might not have been as big as it was back then.
