Sylvia Quayle's Cause of Death

Sylvia Quayle, at age 34, was found dead at her house in Cherry Hills Village, Colorado. Moreover, she used to live alone without her parents or sibling in Cherry Hills Village but used to maintain her close bond with her family members.

Likewise, the people who used to know her described her as a very kind and caring person, and she used to be the role model for her younger sister. And the police were first informed about the incident on 4 August 1981, when the initial investigating team met her father, who came to visit his daughter.

Her father found her in the pool, lying in her blood. The investigation revealed that the cause of the death was due to multiple stabbings and shootings; they also found strangulation marks around her neck.

After that, the autopsy determined the actual cause: Sylvia was shot in her sleep before being sexually assaulted, strangled, and then stabbed to death. The police also found the forced entry to the house through the windows; however, it was not enough to serve as evidence of the homicide.

The authorities tried their best to find the culprit, but since DNA technology wasn’t advanced back then, officials could not collect much forensic evidence. The case remained closed for many years after the foreign substance was found on the rug near the victim’s remains.

The case was reopened in the 2010s through the new DNA matching called Genetic Geanology, pointed at David Dwayne Anderson, a local resident who lived just minutes away from Sylvia’s house at that time. It was later found that David was a repeat offender who had been in and out of prison for burglary. However, the police didn’t have the evidence to arrest David, so they collected his DNA from his trash, and once it turned out to be a perfect match to the sample found at the crime scene, he was arrested and charged with murder.
