The Murders of Giti Harari & Wendy Aldrich Part Two

After the murder of Giti Hariri in May 1988, her closest friend, Wendy Aldrich, struggled to move forward. What began as grief quickly turned into something deeper, drawing her back again and again to the cemetery, to the model home, and to the unanswered questions surrounding her friend’s death.But Wendy wasn’t the only one watching.Giti’s husband, Behrooz Juneghani, became convinced Wendy was responsible for the murder. He secretly monitored her visits, planted recording devices at the gravesite, and even hired a private investigator to get close to her, none of it producing evidence, but all of it adding tension to an already fractured story.Then, on July 31, 1988, Wendy disappeared.She was last seen buying flowers and a balloon before heading to Giti’s grave. She never returned home. Days later, her car was found abandoned more than 100 miles away at Lake Livingston State Park, her belongings still inside, but no sign of Wendy.What followed only deepened the mystery.Strange phone calls to her apartment. Accusations without evidence. A growing list of unanswered questions.Nearly two months later, partial remains discovered at Lake Somerville were believed to be Wendy’s. Without a full body, investigators could not determine how she died, leaving her case, like Giti’s, without resolution.Two women. Close friends. Killed within months of each other.And decades later, no clear answers tying their deaths together, or separating them.Their stories remain linked not by proof, but by the same unresolved question: what really happened in the summer of 1988?Part 2 of 2.If you have any information about the murder of Wendy Aldrich, please contact Crime Stoppers of Houston at (713) 222-8477.You can support gone cold and listen to the show ad-free at https://patreon.com/gonecoldpodcastFind us at https://www.gonecold.comFor Gone Cold merch, visit https://gonecold.dashery.comFollow gone cold on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, TikTok, YouTube, and X.
