    Joseph Moreno Aguayo - California Death Row




    Summary of Offense:

    Through DNA evidence, Aguayo was convicted of killing Eva Chu, who was seven months pregnant at the time of her death in April 1979. Aguayo was serving a 60-year sentence for kidnapping, rape and robbery of his ex-girlfriend when the district attorney’s office reviewed old cases, and discovered the match. The defense argued there was a possibility of human or machine error, and to not rely on DNA evidence. Defense also had witnesses who described a man that looked nothing like Aguayo drive away in Chu’s car.

    Aguayo was sentenced to death in Sacramento County on December 21, 2006.
