Dolores Clement, 55, was raped and murdered in her Los Angeles home on September 27, 1984. Her killing was later linked through forensic evidence to Kevin Bernard Haley, one of two brothers accused of a prolonged crime spree that targeted older women in the Venice and Mid-Wilshire neighborhoods.

Investigators arrested Kevin Haley on October 9, 1984, after matching his fingerprints to the scene. He admitted to multiple rapes and burglaries during interrogation but initially denied the murders. Authorities tied both Kevin and his older brother Reginald Haley to hundreds of burglaries, dozens of rapes and several murders; Dolores Clement was identified as one of their victims.

In June 1988 Kevin Haley was convicted of murder, rape, sodomy, robbery and burglary in connection with Clement’s death, and the jury fixed the penalty at death. Reginald Haley was convicted on multiple charges including robbery, burglary, rape and kidnapping and received 60 years plus one term of life. Did anyone in Venice or Mid-Wilshire remember Dolores or have information about that period?
