Dismembered San Jose woman identified in cold case homicide
(KRON) — Forty-four years ago, a dismembered woman's torso and two religious pendants were found dumped in a field in San Jose. A team of cold case investigators used genealogy technology to uncover the woman's identity. The slain woman was Vivian Moss, a 54-year-old grandmother and member of Mt. Zion Spiritual Church, the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Cold Case Unit announced Tuesday. Moss' torso was found in an empty field along Mabury Road on July 11, 1981. The killer had dismembered her body, investigators said. She had no identification with her, but San Jose Police Department officers found two religious medallion pendants near the homicide victim's partial remains. One medallion was inscribed, 'Saint Christopher Protect Us.' The second medallion had a figure of the Virgin Mary surrounded by the words, 'Mary conceived without sin. Pray for us who have recourse to thee.' Moss had been stabbed multiple times in the chest, the district attorney's office said. Since then, a VTA Berryessa Transit Center and a BART station parking structure were built over the field. While the woman's identity was still a mystery, the DA's Office partnered with forensic genealogists at Parabon NanoLabs. Last year, Parabon hypothesized that the victim was likely Moss, who was born in Arkansas in 1927. In 2024, DA investigators found and interviewed Moss' granddaughter, as well as compared their DNA. '(The granddaughter) told investigators that when she was a young girl, Vivian was supposed to pick her up to stay the night at her home. Vivian didn't show and she never saw her grandmother again,' the DA's office wrote. Cold case team members and Moss' surviving family members are now hoping to identify and find her killer. They are asking the public to come forward with any information about Moss and her tragic fate. District Attorney Jeff Rosen said, 'Vivian Moss was her name. I know it. Her family knows it. And now our community knows it. One day soon, I hope we will know the depraved person who took her life and left her in a field, hoping she would be forgotten. If her murderer is still alive, they will know that we don't forget in Santa Clara County.' 'American Nightmare' kidnapper pleads guilty in South Bay cold cases As a follower of the Mt. Zion Spiritual Church, Moss was close with the church's leader, Louis H. Narcisse, who died in 1989. She also may have worked at an elementary school in Oakland at some point before she disappeared, according to investigators. The Santa Clara County District Attorney's Cold Case Unit was established in 2011. The team has solved over 30 cold case murders committed as early as 1969. More than half of those cases were cracked due to advances in DNA analysis and forensic genealogy.

Cody Rhodes returns at WWE Saturday Night's Main Event: 3 feuds for the ‘American Nightmare' now that he is back
Cody Rhodes returned to WWE programming at Saturday Night's Main Event and hit John Cena, the man who beat him at WrestleMania 41 with help from Travis Scott, with a Cross Rhodes. This helped Jey Uso retain the World Heavyweight Championship against Logan Paul. Post the match, Rhodes virtually confirmed his next big feud and announced that he is here to stay. With this, here is a look at three potential feuds for the 'American Nightmare' going ahead. An exciting tag match Let's start with the one that is almost confirmed. After helping Jey Uso retain the title, Rhodes announced that he plans to team up with the 'Yeet Master' to take on John Cena and Logan Paul at Money in the Bank on June 7. This match is likely to be made official on the upcoming edition of Raw. It has the potential to further Jey's feud with 'The Maverick' and also bring 'QB1' one step closer to his ultimate goal— recapturing the Undisputed title. Round 2 with John Cena John Cena is expected to hold on to the title for at least a few more months before dropping it. Moreover, going by the vicious way in which he assaulted R-Truth tonight, the Cenation Leader is unlikely to turn face anytime soon. This essentially suggests that Cody Rhodes, who didn't get his 'Mania rematch, could possibly lock horns with Cena again. This potential match could happen at SummerSlam or even Survivor Series, which are among the 'Big 4' events of professional wrestling, with the Royal Rumble and WrestleMania being the other two. Mixing it up with 'The Best in the World' The Rock reportedly wanted Cody Rhodes to turn heel ahead of WrestleMania 41 but the idea was turned down as 'QB1' is immensely popular and his merchandise sells well. This, however, does not mean that he will never embrace the dark side. In fact, WWE may already have a suitable opponent for him should he turn heel and that person is none other than CM Punk. 'The Second City Saint' has never had a long feud with Rhodes and could make a good opponent for him at WrestleMania 42.

Cody Rhodes returns, Seth Rollins gets his third man at table-setting WWE Saturday Night's Main Event
Cody Rhodes' post-WrestleMania hiatus is over, and WWE wasted no time setting up his next match Rhodes returned to WWE for the first time since losing the Undisputed WWE championship at WrestleMania 41 to save Jey Uso from an attack from new champion John Cena to close a newsworthy 'Saturday Night's Main Event' from Yuengling Center in Tampa, Fla. on Saturday night. Cena, after defeating R-Truth earlier in the night, teased in a segment with Uso of helping Logan Paul win the World Heavyweight champion because his career ending with the other world title in the hands of a YouTuber would 'ruin wrestling.' Advertisement Cena tried his best by pulling the ref out of the ring when Uso appeared to have the match won with a frog splash. Instead, Rhodes delivered a Cross Rhodes to Cena and allowed Uso to win with a spear to Paul — who missed a swing at the American Nightmare with his brass knuckles.

‘American Nightmare' returns? Cody Rhodes' surprise sighting sparks WWE buzz
Image via WWE Cody Rhodes' sudden disappearance from WWE programming following his dramatic loss to John Cena at WrestleMania 41 has kept fans guessing. But a recent sighting of the 'American Nightmare' just two hours away from the venue of Saturday Night's Main Event has reignited speculation about his return. Rhodes was seen in Orlando, Florida, enjoying time with his wife, Brandi Rhodes, and close friends outside the Epic Universe theme park. The former champion was spotted wearing a grey suit - an outfit choice that has become symbolic of his WWE persona. Fans quickly took to social media to express their curiosity. One post jokingly asked, 'so he don't see us stressing,out here having fun and shi' What's fuelling the buzz is that Orlando is only a short drive from Tampa, where WWE's Saturday Night's Main Event is scheduled for May 24. The timing and location of the sighting have led many to believe that Rhodes could make an unannounced appearance at the show. Post-WrestleMania silence adds to the intrigue Rhodes, who lost the Undisputed Title to Cena at WrestleMania - with outside interference from rapper Travis Scott, has been off television ever since. He was even advertised for last week's SmackDown but didn't show up, leaving fans and insiders alike puzzled. Bully Ray, speaking on Busted Open Radio , said Rhodes' absence could be a calculated move. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Thị trường có dấu hiệu suy thoái không? IC Markets Đăng ký Undo 'Absence makes the heart grow fonder... We miss him, and that's a good thing,' Ray noted, suggesting that the silence may make his eventual return more impactful. Interestingly, fans specualte that Rhodes might not be targeting Cena or Roman Reigns upon his return. Instead, current WWE World Heavyweight Champion Jey Uso could find himself in Cody's crosshairs. The two had a shaky alliance earlier this year, and with Uso defending his title against Logan Paul at the upcoming event, some speculate Rhodes may interfere. This could mark a darker chapter for the former babyface, possibly hinting at a heel turn. Given Rhodes' past storylines involving betrayal and frustration, such a shift wouldn't be entirely out of character. While WWE has not confirmed Rhodes' return for the May 24 show, fans are keeping a close eye on developments. With Money in the Bank 2025 just around the corner, the timing for Rhodes' comeback couldn't be more perfect. For now, the sighting in Orlando has added fuel to the fire. Whether Cody Rhodes steps back into the ring this weekend or continues his strategic silence, the buzz is certainly back.
