A body that was found in the Oakland-Alameda estuary last September has been identified as that of a woman who was killed by her son-in-law, San Pablo police say.
Officials on Tuesday said the identity of 74-year-old Que Thi Tran was confirmed through DNA testing from evidence collected in March. Also on Tuesday, law enforcement agencies cooperated to conclude coordinated search efforts near the area where Tran's body was recovered from the City of Alameda. Last month, it was reported that Phuc Vo, a San Pablo man, who had reported his wife and mother-in-law, missing back in September, was charged with their murders.
San Pablo police said they took Vo's report of his wife and her mother's disappearance from the 1900 block of Sutter Avenue on Sep. 12. They were reported to have left in their 2017 Honda Fit to Southern California after an argument with family members. Police could not corroborate this information as investigators found inconsistencies with what Vo told police.
