Disappearance and Murder
Ms. Evelyn Hernandez, a 24-year-old Salvadoran American who worked as a vocational nurse, was last heard from on the night of May 1, 2002, at her residence in San Francisco. Her wallet was found several days later, on Linden Avenue at Canal Street, in South San Francisco, two blocks from where her boyfriend, Herman Aguilera, worked at a limousine company. On May 7, 2002, she and her five-year-old son Alex were reported missing. On July 24, 2002, Evelyn Hernandez's torso was found floating in San Francisco Bay, near the Embarcadero and Folsom Street. Her full-term unborn child and her son Alex have not been found. On October 5, 2002, the Visual and Performing Arts Department at the University of San Francisco held a march on Mission Street in memory of Hernandez. The case was also profiled twice on America's Most Wanted during the summer of 2003.

Famous quotes containing the word murder:
“If we Americans are to survive it will have to be because we choose and elect and defend to be first of all Americans; to present to the world one homogeneous and unbroken front, whether of white Americans or black ones or purple or blue or green.... If we in America have reached that point in our desperate culture when we must murder children, no matter for what reason or what color, we don’t deserve to survive, and probably won’t.”
—William Faulkner (1897–1962)
