VANCOUVER — Vancouver police and the provincial unsolved homicide unit have made an arrest in a cold case that dates back more than 16 years.
Sixty-nine-year-old Jean Ann James, of Richmond, is facing a charge of first-degree murder in the 1992 slaying of Gladys Wakabayashi and will appear in court next week.
Wakabayashi was 41 when she was stabbed to death.
Her body was found by her husband in her Vancouver home on June 24, 1992.
Vancouver police and the unsolved homicide unit have been investigating the murder for several years.
RCMP Const. Annie Linteau says police were able to lay the charge as a result of new evidence.
