00:00November 30th, 2012, around 1.30 in the morning, some thieves had broken into the house on the 1800 block
00:09of Whitty Road, near Beck Avenue.
00:12There, a well-known investor had been murdered. The victim was Ravish Kumra.
00:19At the time of the attack, he was with Harinder, his ex-wife, who was injured.
00:24Both had been tied up and gagged with industrial tape, but the intruder's carelessness when placing the tape on Kumra
00:31ended up being fatal.
00:32By also covering his nose, they suffocated him.
00:36During the autopsy, it was determined that the body showed cuts and scratches on the hands, proof that Kumra defended
00:43himself.
00:44And this would allow forensic experts to find traces of the attacker's DNA under the victim's fingernails, which would provide
00:51key evidence for the case.
00:53Three and a half weeks later, the police arrested Lucky Sanderson.
00:58His DNA had appeared under Ravish's fingernails, a sign that he had struggled with him during the attack.
01:04This made him a murder suspect.
01:07But the problem was that Lucky barely remembered what he had done that night, since his alcoholism and health problems
01:14caused him to have memory lapses.
01:18That made it difficult to prove his innocence, until records appeared showing that, when the crime happened, Lucky was in
01:24a hospital.
01:26Even so, he spent more than a month in prison accused of the murder.
01:30But then, how did Sanderson's DNA end up under Ravish Kumra's fingernails?
01:35A detail emerged that seemed minor, but it turned out to be key.
01:40And we're talking about the names of the paramedics who had picked up Lucky Sanderson that night at the SNS
01:46market.
01:48Three hours after attending to Sanderson, those same paramedics had been at the Montesereno mansion, checking the vital signs of
01:56Ravish Kumra.
01:57And it was in that gap, in those almost invisible oversights, that the door opened for the DNA of an
02:04innocent man to end up incriminating him, appearing at the scene of a murder.
02:10From the collection of evidence found at the crime scene, several other unknown DNA profiles emerged.
02:16These names were Javier Garcia and D'Angelo Joseph Austin.
02:21On December 27, the Oakland police arrested Javier Garcia and D'Angelo Joseph Austin.
02:28He was arrested on December 29, 2012, on suspicion of murder in connection with the case.
02:34But the story didn't end there.
02:36The investigation brought to light another key figure.
02:39She was Katrina Fritz, a woman who had worked for more than a decade as Ravish Kumra's exclusive escort.
02:47Katrina Fritz, sister of D'Angelo and former partner of Kumra, pleaded guilty to robbery and unlawful detention in September
02:542014.
02:55Lucky Sanderson was finally released in June 2013.
02:57King James Thompson was finally brought to kill her.
02:57The victim of the murder, together with the Menschen of the hebam, was the need for the murder.

02:57It was only then, I mean, we have a complaint about it.
