From the FBI's website:
"On October 11, 1985, Alexander Michel Odeh was killed when a bomb exploded at the Office of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) at 1905 East 17th Street in Santa Ana, California. Odeh, who was the Western Regional Director of the ADC, was killed when he unlocked and opened the door of the ADC's office at approximately 9:00 a.m. In addition to killing Odeh, the bomb injured several other people and caused massive damage to the building."
Thoughts? It should be noted this is a well-known case, there's even a 1 million dollar reward being offered by the FBI, although I'm unsure if it's ever been profiled on a national crime show which is why I put it in the exclusive unsolved section. Wikipedia has a page on the case and apparently the latest known promising lead came in 2007:
"In 2007, the FBI revealed they had received information from a deceased informant, believed to be former Jewish Defense League member Earl Krugel, who had been sentenced to 20 years in federal prison for 2001 plots to bomb a Southern California mosque and office of an Arab American congressman. It is believed that Irv Rubin, who died in prison while awaiting trial on the same charges, revealed to Krugel the names of those responsible for Odeh’s death and Krugel shared those with the FBI before he, too, died in prison. The bombers are believed to be Manning and two other JDL activists, Keith Fuchs and Andy Green, who also fled to Israel and are believed to be living in Kiryat Arba."
All I know is over 30 years is too long to wait for justice. I am half-Jewish myself, but there is no excuse for taking another human being's life if it's not in self-defense.
Admin Note #1: According to the fbi.gov website, Anyone with any information on Odeh's killer or killer should contact their local FBI field office or nearest American Embassy or Consulate.
