    Love is planning Iconic’s 30th birthday party, which is also their going away party. Iconic felt his family had suffered, enough and it was time to make a move. Iconic, Love, the triplets, and baby Choice were all headed to Miami, and had no plans to look back. Things were good for them, and they made a vow to keep it that way, and a fresh start was what they needed … until Pam returned with information on Love’s father. The rest of the family didn’t want to see them leave, but they knew it was something they needed to do to strengthen their bond. Meanwhile, the rest of the crew tried to keep things together. Pooch and Queen had their son King, who was now two and bad as ever, but Pooch saw no wrongdoing; his favorite line to Queen was ‘He’s a boy, that’s what they do.’ That was their added chaos, and the fact that since their wedding, Pooch had been pushing for number two. Mama Toni and Ice were working out just fine now that she was running Iconic’s businesses full time. He could keep a close eye on her since the doctor was back at his old tricks.

    The murders were similar enough that police considered them the result of one person and believed them to be the work of a serial killer. But as quickly as the murders began, the killings seemed to end. Detectives suspected the Spokane River Killer was either dead, incarcerated or had moved out of the area. Six years later, the bodies of murdered women once again began turning up all around the Spokane area. In 1999, Robert Lee Yates was arrested and police hoped they had finally found their killer. In 2000, he plead guilty to killing 11 women from the Spokane area between 1996 and 1998. During the investigation however, Yates was ruled out as a suspect in the 1990 slayings. DNA recovered from underneath the fingernails of the third victim was eventually identified as being from a man. But no match could be found. Their man was still on the loose. In 2009, DNA from a federal inmate was matched to the DNA recovered from underneath the fingernails of the third victim. The inmates fingerprint was also matched to a print recovered from a bottle of vaginal lubricant found in a dumpster along with the second victim’s discarded belongings. Police finally believed they had their man. But did they? The DNA match belonged to a female inmate.
