Chandra Levy's Possible Murderer Found (and it wasn't Gary Condit)

When Chandra Levy disappeared eight years ago, the police (and media) put then-California Representative Gary Condit on public trial because he'd been having an affair with her, it was assumed he'd murdered her. He lost his seat when everything came out. Did the police look hard enough for other suspects or did they pretty much concentrate on Gary Condit?


In the works is an arrest warrant for Ingmar Guandique for the murder of Chandra Levy, who the police actually did question back then. He apparently told them that he saw her in the park but didn't harm her. He is now in prison for the assault of two women who were jogging in Washington's Rock Creek Park, where Chandra Levy's body was found.

I am not big on politicians. I think they're all mostly liars in one way or another, however, that is a long way from murder. Gary Condit was crucified publicly and has lived with the fact that people thought he murdered this woman for along time.

What are the police to do? In a large percentage of cases, crimes are committed by somebody the victim knew so is it ok that police tend to concentrate more on people known to the victim or should they do more to look for strangers?
