Ian Mitcham is charged with the murder of Allison Feldman on February 18, 2015. Allison was found by her then-boyfriend Alex Sukhodolov. The front door to the house was locked so Alex used a key and went inside where he found Allison dead in a hallway so he then called the police. Allison was found in a state of undress, and had been allegedly strangled, beaten, and sexually assaulted with a beer bottle. There were no signs of forced entry at Allison's home. Detectives collected more than 400 pieces of evidence as well as DNA from the glass bottle, furniture and a door knob. With the search for the killer slowing, investigators were allowed to do a familial DNA search which identified suspected killer's brother, Mark Mitcham, who was serving time in an Arizona prison for child molestation. On April 10, 2018, police arrested Ian Mitcham at the Phoenix deli he worked at. One month before Allison's murder, a blood sample was taken from him in a DUI arrest and had been stored as evidence. This newly acquired DNA profile matched the one developed from the crime scene.
