SALINAS, Calif. — Eleven Sundays have passed since the start of the murder trial of Paul Flores, who is accused of killing Cal Poly San Luis Obispo student Kristin Smart and disposing of her body.
But a San Luis Obispo County prosecutor said that pales in comparison with the 1,370 Sundays that Stan and Denise Smart have waited to find their daughter, who vanished after a college party in 1996, or at least learn what happened to her.
Deputy District Attorney Chris Peuvrelle told jurors that Paul Flores and his father, Ruben Flores, knew where her body was all those years.
