Man arrested in connection with 42-year-old Solano County cold-case murder
Man arrested in connection with 42-year-old Solano County cold-case murderA suspected killer has been arrested in connection with a cold case that's been a mystery for over 42 years.
On Monday, the Solano County Sheriff's Office announced the arrest of Herman Lee Hobbs in connection with the 1980 killing of 21-year-old Holly Ann Campiglia from New Jersey. A convicted killer, Hobbs was in prison serving time for a 1975 murder for which he was convicted in 2005.
Then, in August 1980, two field workers on Sievers Road in unincorporated Dixon discovered a body in a cornfield. She had suffered gunshots to her head and neck. For the next 10 years, Campiglia's identity was unknown. Then, in 1992, the National Missing Persons Unit helped identify Campiglia as the victim, the sheriff's office says.
