BOCA RATON, FL -- It has been 20 months since Randi Gorenberg walked out of the Town Center Mall toward her SUV, only to be discovered murdered an hour later, and 11 months since Nancy Bochicchio and her 7-year-old daughter Joey were discovered shot to death in their SUV at the same mall.

Though 40 percent of the crimes addressed on "American Most Wanted" are solved, it is just a TV show, not an investigating agency.
