THE TOWN OF TIBURON COMMENDING
CORPORAL PETER J. TOMASZEWSKI
FOR HIS OUTSTANDING WORK IN IDENTIFYING
A MURDER VICTIM "BABY .JANE DOE"
WHEREAS, in May of 1988, a small murdered infant, subsequently
named "Baby Jane Doe," was found on the shoreline of the Town of Tiburon,
and
WHEREAS, a massive murder investigation was conducted by a team
of investigators comprised of Tiburon Police Department and Marin County
Sherifrs Department personnel to not only find the perpetrator of the crime,
but also to identity the baby, but to no avail, and
WHEREAS, after a considerable period of time, the investigation was
taken over solely by Tiburon Police Department investigators, and
r
WHEREAS, Corporal Peter J. Tomaszewski, when assigned specifically
as the Police Department's investigator, renewed the murder investigation
and, through relentless and outstanding investigative work, doggedly pursued
his "hunch" that the parents of the child were a missing woman found
murdered in Humboldt County and a man found to have committed suicide
in Seattle, Washington, and
WHEREAS, Corporal Tomaszewski ensured and coordinated
Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) testing which positively identified the murdered
woman and man found in Seattle to be the parents of "Baby Jane Doe," and
WHEREAS, because of Corporal Tomaszewski's investigation, "Baby
Jane Doe" is now identified and can be laid to rest with her mother,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Town Council, on
behalf of the residents of the Town of Tiburon, does hereby commend
Corporal Peter J. Tomaszewski and express heartfelt appreciation of the
community for his tireless efforts in helping identity the young victim of this
very violent crime after five years.
