Rachel Morin murder suspect linked to LA assault as hundreds join tribute walk on Ma & Pa trail - live updates

Harford County Sheriff’s Office
Rachel Morin: Maryland police release CCTV of suspect

Rachel Morin was remembered over the weekend as hundreds of community members took part in a tribute walk along the Ma & Pa Trail in Bel Air, Maryland, where the mother-of-five was murdered.

The 5km walk, called “Rachel’s last steps”, was organised by Morin’s sister Rebekah and took place on Saturday.

Community members came out to pay tribute to the 37-year-old on the walk before then heading to the Flavor Cupcakery Bakery and Cafe, where 20 percent of its sales were donated to support Morin’s five children.

Morin was found dead on the trail on 6 August, after heading to the trail for a walk the evening before.

More than two weeks on, the killer remains at large.

Last week, the Harford County Sheriff’s Office announced a major break in the case, revealing that DNA found at the scene of Morin’s murder had been matched to the DNA left at a home where an unknown man broke into a home in Los Angeles and violently attacked a young girl back in March.

The suspect, a Hispanic male aged 20-30, was caught on a home security camera leaving the LA home.
