Former stripper hopes police will take second look at 1996 cold case
What do a stripper, a bar owner shot to death in broad daylight, and cold case detectives have in common?
They are all part of a story running in tomorrow's paper. The story concerns the 1996 shooting death of Mohamed "Mo" Sarehkhani.
"Mo" owned the Illusions topless bar on Valley Boulevard. A week or so before Thanksgiving 1996, Mo took a bullet that killed him.
Ever since, the stripper has been trying to piece the case together, while cold case detectives from the county Sheriff's department and the El Monte P.D. admit they've been stumped since day one.
There's a lot of interesting characters in the story, including a bouncer who claimed he once wrestled "Andre" the Giant.
