<p>Investigators also said that Aviles&#8217; killer met her at a bar in Austin called Club Caribe, just three miles from the spot where Rivera was killed. <br>Police have also since released a video that shows Rivera walking with a male &#8216;person of interest&#8217; just before she was killed. <br>Sgt.

<p class="has-small-font-size"><strong>According to Sgt. Sexton, Austin PD and Bastrop County Sheriff&#8217;s Office are working closely together to trace the source of the DNA left at the crime scenes</strong></p>



<p>Even with the new DNA evidence, they have been unsuccessful in using a DNA index system to track the person, meaning they likely haven&#8217;t been arrested before. <br>Sexton added: &#8216;Unfortunately that suspect does not come back to CODIS, what we call the national database, so they&#8217;re not in that system.&#8217;<br>According to Sexton, the department and Bastrop County Sheriff&#8217;s Office are working closely together to turn the DNA into a suspect. <br>He added: &#8216;We&#8217;re trying to compare notes and see if there&#8217;s anyone that may come up in both cases or may have lived here; so it will take quite a bit of research in going through the data.&#8217;<br>When asked if there were any other murders that were linked, he replied: &#8216;There could be more.&#8217;</p>
