Cold case solved: DNA evidence helps find suspect in 2008 Grand Prairie killing
SUMMARY: After nearly 20 years, advances in DNA technology led to the arrest of Jerry Lee Gardner for the murder of Raymond Hernandez, who was found stabbed in a house fire in Grand Prairie on August 8, 2008. Despite initial investigations yielding no leads, the case reignited in 2017 with the creation of a suspect sketch from DNA evidence. Collaborative efforts between Grand Prairie Police and Texas Rangers utilized forensic genetic genealogy, ultimately identifying Gardner. The case closure brings solace to Hernandez’s friends and family, especially for former colleague Victoria Padia Dominguez, who remained hopeful for justice throughout the years.

Candy and their affect on your dental health
SUMMARY: Halloween is a fun but potentially harmful time for dental health due to excessive candy consumption. Local dentist Dr. Ivรญs Hernandez highlights that she frequently sees adults in her office post-Halloween, often due to issues caused by indulging in their children‘s candy. Sticky and hard candies, like caramel and gummy bears, are especially notorious for damaging teeth. In contrast, chocolate, particularly dark chocolate, is a safer option as it dissolves quickly without sticking. Dr. Hernandez emphasizes the importance of good dental hygiene practicesโsuch as brushing, flossing, and regular dental visitsโto mitigate risks associated with sugary treats.
Halloween is less than two weeks away. With trick-or-treating comes lots of candy for many children, and adults. Dr. Ivis Hernandez joins us to talk more about how their impact on your teeth during this holiday season.
