Forensic expert calls Gainesville crime scenes the most difficult
Dr. Michael West, a dentist and deputy medical examiner from Hattiesburg, said the three Gainesville apartments where five college students were found were the most difficult crime scenes he has ever seen. He noted the killer was methodical with little evidence left behind. Memorials were held at a 10,000 seat center as UF announced scholarships in memory of the victims, three UF students and two from Santa Fe Community College.
