December 4, 2003, Jonathan Luna was found face down in a creek next to his car with 36 stab wounds. The FBI declared his death suicide but two local coroners disagree.
Here is a timeline of his last few hours:
11:30 (pm)- Luna left the Baltimore courthouse and headed NE on the I-95 into Delaware. He used his EZpass as he entered New Jersey.
12:57 (am)- Luna withdrew $200 from an ATM at the JFK plaza service center in Newark, Delaware.
2:47 (am)-Luna gets on the PA turnpike. He did not use his EZpass this time but switched to paper tickets.
3:20 (am)- Luna uses his debt card to get gas at the King of Prussia service station.
4:04 (am)- Luna exits the turnpike at the Reading-Lancaster interchange. There was a spot of blood on his toll ticket.
5:00-5:30 (am)- The first employee arrived at Sensenig and Weaver at 5:00, however it wasn't till 5:30 that Lunas car was noticed in the parking lot. The front end was in the stream and Luna was partially underneath.
The scene:
Luna was still wearing his suit and black overcoat. His courthouse ID was still around his neck. Luna has 36 stab wounds in the face, neck and genitals. His head was in the creek, his death was ruled drowning. There was a pool of blood in the back seat of his vehicle and blood was smeared over the driver door and front left side of the car. It was determined Luna was stabbed with his own pocket knife.
So what happened to Luna?
Theories:
Suicide- The FBI leaned towards suicide because they could not prove anyone else was with him, even though there was a second DNA sample in the vehicle and a partial unknown print. Some of Lunas stab wounds where shallow which typically means hesitation and he had no defense wounds. He was currently under investigation and scheduled to take a polygraph after $36,000 from a bank robbery case. It's also noted that although married with 2 kids, he had racked up $25,000 in credit card debt from dating websites.
Homicide: Two local coroner's from Lancaster County have ruled this death a homicide. To start he left his glasses which he needs to drive in his office, along with his cell phone. He had spoken to the DA earlier about faxing over important documents that he never sent. The pool of blood in the back seat of the car has some investigators believing he was not driving. They are leaning more towards the "scorned lover" theory as he had been stabbed in the genitals. As mentioned earlier there was a second DNA sample present.
Lunas case still remains open.
I feel it is important to note, although there is no noted connection. When searching Lunas case I noticed the disappearance of Ray Gricar, the missing DA from Centre County comes up. He has been missing since 2005 under suspicious circumstances.
Edit: It seems through deeper digging that dating sites and credit card debt may not be linked. The debt is noted on several sites. However, sources on the dating sites are not as credible. Sorry!
