On April 28, 1997 the Thousand Oaks, California branch of Western Financial Savings Bank was robbed at gunpoint. 39-year-old mother of two, Monica Leech, complied with the armed robbers’ demands and assisted with opening the bank vault. Just before the two masked men made their exit, one of them inexplicably shot Monica in the back of the head, killing her. It would take nearly 30 years for investigators to track down Monica’s killer and hold him responsible.
