Actress tracks down father’s killer with $280 and the Internet

New York actress Joselyn Martinez has done what the cops couldn’t: With just $280 and some Internet access, the 36-year-old actress actually tracked down the man who allegedly shot and killed her father in 1986. “I couldn’t live with myself if [the killer] stayed free,” said Martinez. She first scoured MySpace and Facebook for leads on Juan Santos, whom cops had immediately fingered for the crime but who had fled to his native Dominican Republic before he could be arrested. With $280 for background search sites, Martinez eventually tracked Santos to the Florida janitorial company where he worked as a manager — and handed in the evidence to the NYPD. Santos was arrested in Miami and reportedly confessed to the crime.
