The parents of then 18-year-old Alicia Monique Alexander, who was murdered 20 years ago, asked the public to help find their daughter's killer.
"I want them to get this person, although it hurts real bad. But I feel it will be a little relief," said mother Mary Alexander.
LAPD cold case detectives say DNA and ballistics evidence have linked the cases.
One woman, who survived being shot and raped, described the attacker as a black man with short hair, driving a rust, red or orange Ford Pinto.
Anyone with information is urged to call (877) LAW-FULL, or (877) 529-3855.
