According to Officer Angela Bennett of the HBPD, Cynthia Roberta Strange was booked into Huntington Beach Jail and held without bail.

On Sept. 4, HBPD officers went to a home in the 6800 block of Vista Del Sol Drive to check on the welfare of Ruth Strange after a citizen called to tell police they were unable to contact her after going to her home to pick her up for a doctor’s appointment.

Police entered the home and found Ruth dead and detectives began investigating the case due to “suspicious circumstances.” Over the next four weeks, detectives developed information and evidence leading to the Cynthia Strange as the suspect, according to Bennett.

The investigation is ongoing and no other information was released on Tuesday.
