🚨 We’re making headlines... AGAIN! 🚨 Once Upon A Crime was featured on @KENS5 News, diving into the shocking case of a suspected serial killer buried in a national cemetery, and the fight to have his remains removed.

Some cases never leave you. For me, it’s Fernando Cota — a suspected serial killer who preyed on women in my own backyard of San Jose. I’ve carried his story for years. Now, decades later, his name is back in the headlines as the Senate votes to remove his remains from a national cemetery. We spoke with @KENS5 News about why this fight matters, and why justice doesn’t end with death.

🕵️‍♀️ Watch the full story here.
