Castro Valley, Calif., is the spot where the East Bay meets the 1950s. In the old parts of town, there's a white rock lawn on every block. First names are big -- as in Al's Food Market, Gigi's Florist and Pete's Hardware. Residents boast about the parks and go fishing at Lake Chabot. Castro Valley is famous for its diners.

SAN FRANCISCO -- From the moment the girl's body was found stuffed in a duffel bag nearly four years ago, her image haunted detective Scott Dudek - her feminine pajama pants, the single ankle sock decorated with snowflakes, the butterfly clip in her hair. Yet so much was missing - she had no identification, and no one had filed a missing person report. "We had this beautiful child, and no one was coming forth to claim her," Dudek said. "But you knew instantaneously this was someone's little girl." The FBI's crime database lists about 6,000 unidentified victims nationally. Some of...

CASTRO VALLEY - Racial tensions came to a boil at Castro Valley High today between students displaying Mexican and American flags, having simmered since May 1's "Day Without Immigrants" protests. While students on both sides -- largely divided between Latinos and whites--and administrators disagree on whether race is what originally sparked the bad feelings, there's no uncertainty it's now all about race. "This is out of control," said freshmen Allie Levy as she and a friend were picked up by a parent during lunch. They were leaving early because they feared for their safety. During today's lunchtime demonstrations, dozens of...

CASTRO VALLEY - Students waving American flags amidst racial tension between Latino and white students were back at Castro Valley High early this morning, with those on both sides expecting the situation to escalate. At 7 a.m. several pickup trucks and other vehicles with American flags began arriving in one of the parking lots. The students then walked around the lot in a small, quiet demonstration. Ashley Morrison, a junior, is upset some view these flag-wielders as "racist white kids." She said it is about supporting the country, and believes there's a double standard for students who bring flags representing...

CASTRO VALLEY -- Pari Cariaga can now say that she knows people in high places -- really high places. Last summer, the Castro Valley fourth-grader expressed to her parents, Hilarie and Rudy Cariaga, that she had been feeling lonely because she was an only child. "She came in one day and just started to cry in my lap," Hilarie said. "She had told me that it was due to the fact that she had nobody to play with." After seeing this, Rudy suggested to his young daughter that she write a letter to none-other-than first lady Laura Bush, an only...
