David Allen Stevens was 38 and worked as a marketing manager for a dating service called Perfect Match. On December 23, 1998, he was found shot to death inside his burning 1995 Chrysler LeBaron in La Jolla, California. Investigators determined Stevens had been shot twice in the head before his car was set on fire.

The investigation later focused on two coworkers from the dating service: Ny Nourn, an 18-year-old telemarketer, and Ronald Barker, a 35-year-old man who was in a relationship with Nourn. According to the case account, Nourn lured Stevens to a meeting; Barker then shot Stevens and set the car on fire. Nourn claimed Stevens had raped her, and Barker’s anger over a date between Stevens and Nourn was reported as the motive for the killing. Both Nourn and Barker were arrested and charged in connection with the murder.

The family criticized the San Diego Police Department’s handling of the scene and filed a citizen complaint with the San Diego Grand Jury alleging negligence in processing the crime scene and poor treatment of the family. Are there witnesses, coworkers, or neighbors who remember Stevens, Nourn, Barker, or the events of that night?
