      The Weslaco Police Department has resurrected a 20-year-old murder case, attempting to unearth new leads in the murder of a woman named Yolanda Moya.
      Ms. Moya, age 33 failed to report to work at a local farm implement company the morning of January 22, 1993. A family member went to her new house at 824 S. Louisiana Avenue looking for her. She was found inside the house with a gunshot wound to her neck, with her lifeless body partially burned. She had been doused with gasoline and her body set afire.
      During the investigation, there were some theories about the death, but no hard evidence was ever found to be able  to take a suspect into custody. Today, with improvements in the use of DNA, the police department thinks it is time to re-investigate the case.
     Obviously, there is at least one person that knows who sealed Ms. Moya`s fate. And he may not be the only person who knows. It is time that justice is provided for Yolanda Moya. Can you help?
     If so, you may provide the information anonymously through Weslaco Crime Stoppers. Call the hotline at (956) 968-8477 or leave your tip on the Crime Stoppers website. Weslaco Crime Stoppers will pay up to a $1,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of a suspect in this case.
