In episode #13 of Tombstone Shadows we’re going be in Southern California, visiting two lives. Both were murdered. One in San Pedro, and the other in Alhambra.

  • Rudy Ernst Mejia III Born: January 29, 1955 Died: July 21, 1990 Burial place unknown.Late one evening, Rudy left his home in Pico Rivera on a warm evening for San Pedro's Cabrillo Beach. Perhaps unknown to Rudy, was that Cabrillo Beach at night was not a safe place to be—especially alone.
  • Elmer Hearn Griffin Born: 1904 Died: February 7, 1926 Buried at Mountain View Cemetery, Pasadena, California Elmer Griffin had been a motorcycle officer for the San Gabriel Police Department for less than one year, when he had a violent run-in with "booze runners."
