The gripping re-enactments of three crimes centered at the Town Center mall yielded 100 tips after Saturday's airing on America's Most Wanted, police said Monday.
The half-hour segment was dedicated to the slayings of Randi Gorenberg and of Nancy Bochicchio and Joey Bochicchio-Hauser. The show's host, John Walsh, also interviewed the 30-year-old mother who was carjacked by the man some believe committed all three crimes. The woman, whose identity was hidden, provided a description used to sketch the suspect.
Officer Sandra Boonenberg, of the Boca Raton Police Department said the tips came through the TV show, Crime Stoppers and the department's tip line. She could not say immediately how valuable the tips will be toward capturing a suspect.
"Every tip was passed onto the investigators for follow-up," said Avery Mann, a show spokesman. "Clearly, this case is important to our South Florida viewers."
Gorenberg, 52, was killed in March and left at Gov. Lawton Chiles Memorial Park west of Delray Beach. About 40 minutes earlier, surveillance cameras caught her leaving Town Center at Boca Raton.
Bochicchio, 47, and her 7-year-old daughter were abducted in December after leaving the mall and were forced to withdraw $500 from an ATM. They were bound and covered with darkened sunglasses and goggles like the woman who escaped the August carjacking from the mall.
This guy needs to be caught...NOW...
