PASO ROBLES — During the Wednesday, Jan. 14, Paso Robles City Council meeting, the council discussed whether or not the mayor and City Council should have term limits.
During the Nov. 4, 2025, City Council meeting, Councilmember Steve Gregory requested, and the council agreed, to revisit the potential enactment of term limits for elected officials. State law allows general law cities such as Paso Robles to adopt term limits for the mayor and/or City Councilmembers, provided the limits are applied prospectively and not to terms already served.

SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY
— A family received some resolution in a question they have had for over four decades — who murdered Dorothy “Toby” Tate?
The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office announced on Tuesday, Jan. 20, that they have finally
solved the Nov. 15, 1983, murder of Toby. Back in 1983, deputies responded to a report of a suspicious van parked at a turnout along Highway 1, approximately 3 miles north of Hearst Castle. Inside the van, detectives discovered the body of Toby, who had been fatally shot. The case initially yielded no known suspects and quickly became an unsolved, cold, “whodunit” case.
The Detectives
The detectives assigned to work on the case included San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Detectives Clint Cole and Jeff Robasciotti. About two years following Cole’s retirement in 2023, he returned to the department to help with some of the county’s still unsolved and cold cases. One of which included Toby’s murder, a case he and Robasciotti decided to work on in 2018.
Camille DeVaul reflects on the 2018 killing of Nancy Woodrum in ‘Harlan Coben’s Final Twist, ‘ bringing a Paso Robles story to a national audience
By HAYLEY MATTSON Publisher, Editor in Chief
PASO ROBLES — When a national television producer called last summer, Camille DeVaul did not immediately think of spotlights or studio lights. She thought of Nancy Woodrum.
Last July, DeVaul, content editor for the Paso Robles Press, was interviewed by CBS Documentaries for a new true crime series created by No. 1 New York Times bestselling author Harlan Coben. The series,
“Harlan Coben’s Final Twist,” premiered Jan. 7 on the CBS Television Network and is streaming on Paramount+. The third episode, “No Sign of Nancy,” which aired Wednesday, Jan. 21, centers on the 2018 murder of Woodrum, a Paso Robles hairdresser, mother, grandmother and friend who was killed in her home on Cinco de Mayo (May 5).
For DeVaul, the opportunity marked a full-circle moment — from community member who followed the crime in local headlines, to journalist who
revisited the case years later, to a contributor helping tell Woodrum’s story on a national stage.
“I was first introduced to Nancy’s case just as a resident in the community,” DeVaul said. “I remember seeing it on the news and online, but it didn’t really grab my attention until I started working in local journalism.”
That changed in 2023, when the fifth anniversary of Woodrum’s murder approached. Around the same time, San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Detective Clint Cole, the
Cole is known for his work on solving the Nancy Woodrum and Kristin Smart cases. Robasciotti has been with the department for nearly 40 years. After retiring in 2018, he shortly returned to work as a reserve detective, assigned to the county’s sexual assault felony enforcement unit, where he supervises the 290 registered sex offenders within the county. Basically, you can’t keep these two from

PASO ROBLES — The City of Paso Robles
honored the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. with its annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Celebration and Service on Monday, Jan. 19, bringing community members together for reflection, unity, and hands-on service.
The city has hosted the event annually since
1990, and this year’s celebration placed a special emphasis on Dr. King’s enduring call to service. The morning began a little different than years past with a community celebration from 9 to 10 a.m. at City Park, featuring guest speakers and musical performances that highlighted Dr. King’s message of hope, equality, and compassion.
“We’re bringing this community together today and having this wonderful event,” said

working to solve crime mysteries.
They have a long history of working together in the department. While Cole was pulled into working on the Smart case, Rabosciotti had his nose to the ground searching for who killed Toby.
“It’s nice to have somebody to bounce things off of each other,” Cole told Paso Robles Press Back in 1983, detectives leaned into theft as the motive for Toby’s murder. Toby, who was travelling through the Central Coast with her two dogs, was shot while seated in the driver’s seat through the window. The suspects then pulled her into the back of the van. An autopsy showed no
signs of sexual assault, so with some items missing, robbery was left as the motive.
Toby’s brand new Nikon camera was missing, along with her purse and other belongings. Her sister Priscilla recalls being told at the time of the crime that Toby may have been seen by the suspects cashing a $400 check nearby, though that information was not within the case files.
Initially, no suspects came up for detectives for many years. According to Cole, some local men were checked out, but still no hits.
Two years later, Toby’s camera was found at a pawn shop in Bakersfield after the family was able to provide the camera’s serial number. This led to some people of interest, men who at one time possessed the camera.
to encourage people to be a part of the city because it is such an important job.”
He also suggested that if someone is appointed to the position, that term does not count in their term limit.
Term limit structures are a local policy choice and may include two- or three-term limits, lifetime or consecutive limits, combined or separate limits for the mayor and council, and rules on partial terms. Any term limits measure must be approved by a majority of voters at a regularly scheduled election and may be placed on the ballot by voter initiative

lead investigator on the case, retired. DeVaul saw an opportunity to revisit the investigation through the eyes of the detective who led it.
She spent weeks reviewing press releases, court records and public information, building notes before sitting down with Cole for an in-depth interview. The resulting article reflected on the case five years later, tracing the investigation from its earliest days through the arrest and conviction of Carlo Flores, a contractor who had worked at Woodrum’s home.
Cole’s candor stood out to DeVaul. During their conversation, he openly reflected on decisions he wished he had handled differently — including an early phone interview with Flores, whom he initially contacted as a potential witness rather than a suspect.
Mayor John Hamon. “This year’s theme is ‘Mission Impossible II,’ building community, uniting a nation in a nonviolent way, is something we should all be remembering. And it was clear that Martin Luther had that message and many of the things that he spoke about during his life. His dream was not abstract. It was a practical and well-grounded respect of control, and shared responsibility between all of us.”
Still, no one fit the bill. By the mid 1980s, the case was considered cold.
Despite the cold temp of the case, not all was lost for detectives. Found at the scene was a Coca-Cola can with fingerprints and drops of blood not belonging to Toby. The evidence was kept in great condition, most likely in hopes of using the blood evidence for blood typing — a method commonly used before DNA to rule suspects out by comparing blood types.
“In a homicide, you collect everything,” Cole explained. “They were just collecting everything. The coke can was far enough away [from the scene] that they collected it, but they never really paid a lot of attention to it. Detective Robasciotti did, and that’s how we identified Sneed.”
or City Council action, with a legal deadline of 88 days before the election.
Councilman Fred Strong made an argument against term limits saying that removing term limits would prevent anyone from serving the city to then serve at a state or federal level due to experience requirements.
Strong said, “We can never have a major position in the state or federal [government], which means we lose our influence in order to get the money and legislation and things we need from those places in order to have the type of city we have now.”
He added that eliminating term limits would take rights away from the people to make their own decisions on who should be
“That honesty is not something you usually get from law enforcement,” DeVaul said. “He talked about missteps and how, in his mind, the case could have been solved even faster.”
The investigation ultimately hinged on geofencing data, which placed Flores near Woodrum’s home at the time of her murder. Without that digital evidence, Cole acknowledged, Flores might never have returned to the center of the investigation.
That detail, DeVaul said, underscores the broader significance of the case.
“Nancy’s case shows the importance of geofencing and how critical it can be, especially in cases where DNA isn’t what solves it,” she said.
CBS producers later told DeVaul that her five-year anniversary article helped draw their attention to Woodrum’s story. They were researching local coverage nationwide when
we honor, his legacy not only by remembering his words, but live with them every day.”
The event began with a listening to an excerpt of Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech followed by Ed Gallagher playing “Amazing Grace” on bagpipes. Paso Robles Scout Troops 1602 and 60 helped with the Presentations of Colors, and Pastor Vern Haynes Jr. gave the invocation.

The case, over 40 years later, is now considered closed.
The Sheriff’s office said in a press release: Given the totality of the evidence, the Sheriff’s Office has requested and received review by the District Attorney’s Office, confirming that sufficient probable cause exists to support prosecution had the suspects been alive. The case has now been officially closed as “exceptionally cleared.”

the Sheriff’s office is looking forward to working with Moore to close more cases using forensic genealogy to help solve them.
“The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s detective division solved his case, because without the work of the investigators back in ‘83, collecting the blood evidence, collecting the coke can, they had to do their job right to allow technology to catch up 43 years later. So it’s really a team effort,” Robasciotti explained.
Both detectives expressed how thankful they are to have Sheriff Ian Parkinson support their efforts.
“Sheriff [Ian] Parkinson is amazing in his support of what Clint does ... We talk to other cold case units and they can’t get funding,” Robasciotti says. “They can’t get this, they can’t do that.
“We learned just at the last election that they’re term limits,” said Strong. “They are called elections because we had a change in an office because of an election ... every single election is a term limit. And that up to the people, then to decide.”
Councilman Chris Bausch agreed with Strong, while Kris Beal said she could see both sides of the argument, leaving her conflicted.
Mayor John Hamon agreed with the notion that the city does have term limits since each seat is up for election every four years. However, he agreed that the city needs new voices welcomed into the fold.
“I think it’s important that we have avail -
they came across the Paso Robles Press reporting.
“They told me that having that article accessible online and in print helped push them to want to tell Nancy’s story,” DeVaul said. “That meant a lot, because sometimes it feels like local journalism just disappears into the atmosphere.”
For DeVaul, the interview process itself was a shift in perspective. Accustomed to asking questions, she found herself on the other side of the camera, recounting the case not only as a reporter but as a resident who lived through its aftermath.
“It was surreal,” she said. “There was a lot of pressure to do right by Nancy — to tell her story accurately, but also with heart. She was a real person who mattered deeply to people here.”

They can’t do a lot of the tests that we’re able to get done.”
“It’s truly not an exaggeration,” Cole added. “Sheriff Parkinson has never said no. These cases are expensive ... I don’t have to worry about it, because Sheriff Parkinson supports these cases. We don’t hear that much.”
The Sheriff’s Office wishes to thank Parabon Nanolabs and Head Geanologist CeCe Moore, Othram Labs, Shelby Liddell with the Sheriff’s Crime Lab, and Dominick Rostenberg from the Phoenix Police Department.
“This case demonstrates the power of modern forensic science and the commitment of Detective Cole, who never stopped working to bring justice to victims and their families,” said Sheriff Ian Parkinson.
ability of new voices, but I would also like to see people in the city come on to the Planning Commission, all these different opportunities to gain leadership and understanding of how the city works and move up to this level,” Hamon said.
Gregory understood he was about 3.5 to one on limiting terms, which he was okay with.
“I brought the idea up because I like it, but I’m okay not liking it too,” said Gregory. Council then motioned to take no action on the item.

episode, “Billy & Billie Jean,” explores a double homicide tied to cyberbullying and a bizarre neighborhood conflict, while the second episode, “Gambler’s Debt,” follows the killing of a successful businesswoman amid tangled financial motives.
Coben’s series aims to peel back layers in cases that initially seemed straightforward but revealed unexpected twists — a framework that producers felt fit the Woodrum investigation.
DeVaul has previously contributed to national coverage, including appearances on Court TV during the Paul Flores trial for the murder of Kristin Smart. Still, she said, telling a story rooted in her hometown carries particular weight.
“This is a story about one of our own,” she said. “Something horrific happened to her, and that’s not something we should forget just because

time has passed or because the case was solved.”
She also sees the moment as a reminder of the role local newspapers play in preserving community history.
“All national stories start locally,” DeVaul said. “Without reporters on the ground, these stories don’t get told. We’re historians in a way — documenting what happens day to day, even when it doesn’t seem significant in the moment.”
As Woodrum’s story reaches a national audience, DeVaul hopes viewers remember not just the crime, but the person at its center — and the importance of supporting local journalism that keeps such stories alive.
“Every word matters,” she said. “Years from now, these articles become the record. That’s why it’s so important to pay attention to local news and support it — because once it’s gone, people realize how much they needed it.”
from 10 to 11:30 a.m.: a Care Package Service Project at the Paso Robles City Library and a Mulch Beautification Service Project at Robbins Field. Nearly 55 community members registered in advance for the service opportunities, with approximately 70 people ultimately participating.
Volunteers at the library assembled care kits in preparation for San Luis Obispo County’s Point-in-Time Count, scheduled for Tuesday, Jan. 27.
The annual count helps assess homelessness throughout the county and connects individuals with resources and services.
Participants who registered for the service projects received a
commemorative Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Celebration and Service gift and were invited to attend a luncheon following the completion of the projects. City organizers noted the strong turnout and excited response from the community, sharing that the success of this year’s service projects is likely to make them a permanent part of future Martin Luther King Jr. Day celebrations in Paso Robles.
To continue the celebration, you can visit the Paso Robles City Library throughout February to view their Black History Month display featuring the Martin Luther King Jr. art contest-winning artwork. TATE
