Shafter resident Peggy Fenderson, 40, reunited with a brother and sister she never knew she had after a long family separation. Raised in Anniston Alabama, she traced a grandmother in Stillwater Oklahoma and learned her brother became an Assembly of God preacher in Kansas City Missouri. The search followed a tense August phone call in which her mother revealed their father had died and withheld information.

Joy Rollins testified she found three letters from Maria to Rollins’ best friend Andre Harrison in a shoe box. The letters suggest an obsession as investigators had not found them earlier. Rollins’ father testified about washing his maroon Oldsmobile the day before Rollins drove it on Aug. 1. A palm print matching Rodriguez was found on the vehicle’s rear bumper.
