Thoughts? As of this posting date (March 15th, 2020), Diaz is still listed on the LAPD most wanted website, which granted is not the most updated website and has mainly cold case fugitives only, but since it still a functioning website enough for me to reasonably assume that he is probably still wanted as of this update. If that status has changed or changes in the future, anyone is more than welcome to let us know.
Additionally, I was able to find more information on this case from an old online article:
"In Blackwell’s place, police added Rodolpho “Sharky” Diaz, a 31-year-old member of the 38th Street gang. He is suspected of killing his ex-girlfriend’s sister, Irma Gaxiola, in a jealous rage and then turning the gun on her mother, Alejandra Cerecer, on Aug. 20, 2002. "
www.dailynews.com/2007/07/20/double-homicide-suspect-arrested/
The article says Diaz was 31 years old in 2007 so that would put him in his early to mid-forties as of the aforementioned posting date.
Also the LAPD website in a rarity didn't advise a specific number to call in if you have tips on Diaz's whereabouts so I would advise your local police or Crime Stoppers line or L.A. Crime Stoppers if you know where Diaz is.
