Craig Alan Paternoster, a 43-year-old resident of Alhambra, California, was fatally shot on May 6, 2002. The Los Angeles County coroner’s records list his death as a homicide and note that he was shot multiple times.

There were no immediate arrests, and investigators said the case lacked witnesses and clear evidence at the time, which hampered progress. Detectives periodically reviewed the file in later years and pursued any new leads or forensic opportunities, but no significant breakthrough has been reported and the case remains open.

Friends and family have expressed ongoing grief and frustration over the lack of closure. If anyone in Alhambra in 2002 has information that could help solve Craig Paternoster’s murder, please come forward.
