Violet Jacoby was found dead in her Beverly Hills home in 2017, leading to a homicide investigation after an autopsy report determined she died from asphyxia due to neck compression, or strangulation.
Tracy Smith of 48 Hours noted that responding officers initially suspected it might be a suicide before the medical findings forced a shift in the department's approach to the case.
The focus has now turned to the digital trail left by Daniel Jacoby. Tracy Smith highlighted that detectives obtained Daniel Jacoby's cellphone records, and the data showed he was not in Inglewood at all that day of the death. Further scrutiny of Nest footage confirmed his presence in the area, a detail that continues to anchor the ongoing investigation into the timeline of the murder.
