The man last seen with Kristin Smart before she vanished from a California college campus 25 years ago will stand trial on a murder charge in her suspected death and his father will face a charge as an accomplice, a judge ruled.

Paul Flores was the last person seen with a very intoxicated Smart on May 25, 1996, as he helped walk her to her dorm at California Polytechnic State University after a party, witnesses said. Prosecutors said he killed Smart while trying to rape her in his dorm room.

Cindy Arrington, an archaeologist with Natural Investigations, Inc., said she found a “clear subsurface disturbance” and “a large anomaly” that was “large enough to fit human remains into,” the Tribune of San Luis Obispo reported. Some women told police that Flores was referred to as “Chester the molester” and “psycho Paul,” the prosecutors said.

William Hanley, head of the district attorney’s investigative bureau in 1996, said Flores eventually stopped cooperating with authorities.
