Evelyn and Alex Hernandez

Evelyn and Alex Hernandez

Author: California True Crime May 25, 2020 Duration: 59:12
In May of 2002, a pregnant Evelyn and her 5 year old son Alex Hernandez went missing from the Amazon-Crocker neighborhood of San Francisco. Initially not considered a serious case everything changed when a month later her wallet was turned in to police after being found in a ditch in South San Francisco. In July of 2002, part of Evelyn’s body was found near the Bay Bridge and police opened a homicide case. Though Alex has never been found, he and his unborn brother are considered both deceased by SFPD. We talk about the details of the murder, the lack of media attention and attempt to spread the word in this 18 year old cold case.

From the fog-shrouded cliffs of the north coast to the sun-baked deserts of the south, California True Crime explores the dark stories woven into the state’s landscape. This isn't just a catalog of cases; it's a deep dive into how these events reflect and shape the social and cultural fabric of California itself. Each episode travels to a specific location, using a crime as a starting point to examine the history, communities, and often-overlooked realities of a place. You'll hear about more than the headlines-the podcast digs into the context that made these stories possible, from the gold rush era to the Hollywood hills, from suburban sprawl to remote mountain towns. The narrative is grounded and detailed, focusing on the human elements and the lasting echoes of these events within their specific Californian settings. For anyone fascinated by how true crime intersects with local history and society, this podcast offers a thoughtful, geographically rooted journey through the state's most compelling and shadowy tales.
