Arrest Made In Old Murder Mystery: Jeanine Harms Last Seen At Campbell Bew Pub
ABC 7 News ^ | Dec. 16

Posted on 12/16/2004 1:38:24 PM PST by nickcarraway

Los Gatos police have made an arrest in the case of a woman who has been missing for three years after she was last seen at a Campbell brew pub. Police say they arrested Maurice Nasmeh in San Jose at 8:45 a.m. this morning. He's the same man who police question three years ago regarding the disappearance of Janine Harms.

Harms was last seen with him at the Rock Bottom Brewery in Campbell in 2001. When she failed to show up for work the following Monday, friends and family became concerned.

She hasn't been seen since.

It was not immediately clear what additional evidence -- if any -- may have led to the man's arrest. he is being held on a no-bail warrant.

This is the the man who was probably the prime suspect all along. Unless there is unreported news, her body was not found. Although, there was one other potential suspect, Nasmeh, an architect, was the last person who saw her before she disappeared.

Probably. Since she was never found it's impossible to know for sure, but her area rug was gone, and was later found in a dumpster.

"Background"

I read the background on Jeanine Harms. It is a long read.

However, this jumped out at me:

"I've been surprised by how resolute they've been," says their son Craig Sanchez. (Sanchez was in town visiting his family from Olney, Md., when Harms' was reported missing.)

Made me go.....Hmmmmm.

Here are some details from another article. Another forensic wonder:

Sinunu said the big break came last year spring when a woman responded to a picture in the Mercury News of a rug that was missing from Harms' apartment. A woman named Charlotte Massey had found the rug in the late summer of 2001 inside a trash receptacle behind a shopping center that was being remodeled about a half-mile from Nasmeh's home.

It was in good condition, so Massey had used the rug in her home until she realized the police were looking for it as evidence in the investigation of Harms' disappearance. Despite all the time that had passed, and cleaning the rug had undergone, crime lab investigators were able find fibers on it that came from some yarn Harms used in a hobby.

``Sophisticated forensic analysis'' determined that those trace fibers matched others they found in the cargo area of Nasmeh's Jeep Grand Cherokee shortly after Harms disappearance,'' Sinunu said.

That's the same vehicle Nasmeh was driving this morning when he was taken into custody without incident as he drove to work.
