Facts of the Crime:
Alfredo R. Prieto was sentenced to death on March 4, 2008 (and re-sentenced to death on December 15, 2010) in Fairfax County for the capital murders of Rachel A. Faver and Warren H. Fulton III, both 22 and both last seen alive December 4, 1988, as they were leaving a restaurant in Washington in Raver’s Toyota Corolla.
Two days later Raver’s partially nude body was discovered in a field along Hunter Mill Road just south of the Dulles Toll Road in Fairfax County.
Raver’s jeans, underpants, gloves and shoes were found halfway between her body and Fulton’s about 100 feet away. Raver had been raped and each died from a gunshot wound in the back fired by the same handgun.
Raver’s car turned up in Queens, New York, where it was ticketed by police December 5, the day before the slayings were discovered. But it was not secured until months later after Raver’s mother was notified by mail that the ticket was past due.
In 1999, testing was performed on a vaginal swab taken from Raver and a DNA profile was discovered that did not belong to either her or Fulton.
In 2005, a cold hit matched the foreign DNA in the Raver/Fulton slayings with Prieto, who was on California’s death row at San Quentin State Prison for the 1990 rape and murder of a teenage girl.
He was extradited to Fairfax County in 2006. His first trial ended with a mistrial because to juror misconduct. He was convicted again in 2008.
Prieto was also linked by DNA to a May 10, 1988 rape and capital murder in Arlington County but those charges were not prosecuted after Prieto was sentenced to death in Fairfax.
