Chandra Levy, 24 Murdered April 2001
5 Years Later, No One Charged In Levy Case D.C. Sergeant Discusses Cold Chandra Levy Case POSTED: 5:46 pm EDT April 28, 2006 UPDATED: 7:09 pm EDT April 28, 2006 WASHINGTON -- It's been five years since Chandra Levy went missing, and no one has been charged in the controversial crime. Levy was a Washington intern involved with a married congressman. After the relationship and the internship came to an end, Levy's life mysteriously came to an end. About a year after she disappeared, her body was found in Rock Creek Park. "I don't know exactly how she was murdered," said D.C. police Sgt. J.C. Young. "Possibly strangulation ... Maybe there was a sex act." Young, who specializes in hard, old, real-life murder mysteries, doubts that Levy was killed by someone she knew or by someone trying to rob her. Levy, 24, was last seen on April 30, 2001, at a health club on Connecticut Avenue. There is evidence that she was in her apartment looking at a guide to Rock Creek Park on her computer the next day. There is speculation that she went to the park to meet someone, but Young doesn't think so. Former U.S. Rep. Gary Condit, a Democrat from Modesto, Calif., posted a $10,000 reward in the case. He was linked romantically to Levy and repeatedly denied having anything to do with her disappearance, even paying for his own lie detector test to prove it. "Mr. Condit got caught on some infidelity, basically," Young said. "And once you're a public figure, then the public's going to speak, and they spoke. They didn't appreciate his infidelity and they spoke with the election." Levy's parents Dr. Robert and Suasn Levy led a crusade to find out what happened to their daughter. They hired powerful attorneys and knowledgeable private investigators. "Their efforts brought more information to the public's eye," Young said. Police searched all over for Levy, even in Rock Creek Park, but nothing was found until May 22, 2002. A man walking his dog looking for turtle shells found Levy's remains on an embankment in the park. The discovery of the skeletal remains intensified the investigation, but no one has ever been charged. Ingmar Gaundique -- a man convicted of assaulting female joggers in Rock Creek Park -- has not been ruled out as a possible suspect, but investigators don't have enough evidence to charge him or anyone else. http://www.nbc4.com/news/9078572/detail.html

FBI Agent Returns To Scene Of Chandra Levy's Death Investigator Discusses 'Spooky' Case POSTED: 7:03 pm EDT April 28, 2006 UPDATED: 8:05 pm EDT April 28, 2006 WASHINGTON -- Five years after Chandra Levy disappeared, News4's Pat Collins went back to the murder scene with the FBI agent working the unsolved case. FBI special agent Brad Garrett has a reputation of solving the unsolvable. He shared his thoughts about Levy's death. He was at the scene the day Levy's remains were found in Rock Creek Park and he has returned to the scene many times since. "You know what's spooky about this location is that if you look down the hill, you can see a house, a road with traffic. And if you were here and you were injured in such a way that you couldn't move, you're actually watching people go by and you can't call out to them to come help you because they're too far away," Garrett said. "That whole thought is just very eerie and spooky to me, that if, in fact, you were awake but immobile that would be how your life would end." No one knows what drew Levy to the park, and no one knows the exact cause of her death. "The attack began right on this trail," Garrett told Collins in the park. "The reason I believe that is because of items we found a short distance off the trail would suggest to me and other investigators that she was attacked on the trail. She then tumbled down the hill." Garrett said it's logical to conclude she was probably sexually assaulted. "Her leotards were found turned wrong-side out, and they were knotted on the end," he said. Garrett said that would be done to bind her. "In what form that was done, we don't know," he said. "But somebody restrained her here." He said her attacker could have been either a stranger or someone she knew. Garrett said he is confident the case will be solved and that he has possible suspects in mind, but it will take time and patience. http://www.nbc4.com/news/9080242/detail.html

CHANDRA'S PARENTS TURN TO 'NET FOR CLUES FIVE YEARS LATER By BILL HOFFMANN -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- May 1, 2006 -- Chandra Levy's parents have launched a Web site in a bid to nail the fiend who killed the Washington intern, who vanished five years ago yesterday. Robert and Susan Levy hope that WhoKilledChandra.com will bring in new leads. The 24-year-old's remains were found in a park more than a year later. "You one foot in front of the other, and you try to walk forward looking for answers," Susan Levy said on MSNBC. Chandra hit the front page when rumors placed the Federal Bureau of Prisons intern in an affair with Gary Condit, her married California congressman. Condit eventually owned up to the affair but denied involvement in her disappearance and was cleared. The Levys sympathize with the parents of Natalee Holloway, who vanished last year in Aruba. "My heart goes out to her ," Susan Levy said. "I know the agony of not knowing." http://www.nypost.com/news/nationalnews/63134.htm
