A man who was deported to Mexico, then extradited to the US last year after DNA linked him to a 2002 cold case, has been found guilty of murdering a Washington state woman and raping three others. Miguel Urbano-Vazquez was convicted Tuesday by a Pierce County jury of aggravated first-degree murder in the rape and strangling of 39-year-old Sharon Van Gilder, whom he picked up at a Tacoma bar 24 years ago, the News Tribune reported. The jury also found him guilty of first-degree rape with a deadly weapon and second-degree rape in attacks on three other women that same year in the city.
