Forensic tests brought potential familial links to the suspect to the fore and, in the end, confirmed what the laboratory described as &#8220;a key genetic relationship&#8221; that guided detectives to their conclusion.<\/p>\n<p>Police identified the suspect in Crandell&#8217;s murder as Baari Shabazz, formerly Edward Barry Watts, who lived less than a mile away from Prince George&#8217;s Hospital Center when the killing took place. Shabazz died in 2019, at 69 years old. Authorities said they were not able to pinpoint a potential motive for the fatal attack, but Shabazz may have intended to steal from the hospital the night that it happened.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I think some of the things that we have to keep in mind is, every case is a person and a family. And what they experienced no one should have to experience,&#8221; said Nader at the news conference, before going on to address Crandell&#8217;s family directly. &#8220;So for that, our deepest condolences to you and admiration for the strength that you&#8217;ve shown over the past 27 years. And thank you for sticking with us to bring closure to this case.&#8221;<\/p>\n<section class=\"content__body--footer\">\n<\/section>\n<p>  <!-- data-recirc-source=\"queryly\" --><\/p>\n<aside
