Clark County Prosecutor Tony Golik said he doesn’t intend to reopen the 1989 murder case into a Vancouver woman’s shooting death despite online pressure from her family to do so. Golik said his office and the Clark County Sheriff’s Office have had several conversations with attorneys for Pooneh Gray, the daughter of Eftekhar “Effie” Entezari, over the years about information her team of investigators has gathered about her mother’s death. Entezari was killed May 1, 1989, in the parking lot of her apartment complex at 11614 N.E. 49th St., Vancouver, according to a news release from the Portland-based Markowitz Herbold law firm, which represents the family’s estate. Entezari’s husband, Mike Entezari, was convicted in her murder and sentenced to 25 years in prison. He was released after 16 years for good behavior. He maintained his innocence for the remainder of his life, the family said.

Gray had taken out social media and TV ads calling for Golik to reopen her father’s case, and she previously offered a $250,000 reward for information about who else could’ve been responsible. But Gray and her attorneys have since named in a civil wrongful death lawsuit the man they say they’ve connected to DNA evidence left on the sweater her mother was wearing when she was killed. The prosecutor declined Thursday to explain details of his analysis of the information that Gray’s attorneys have gathered. Golik said he doesn’t want to affect the wrongful death lawsuit that’s scheduled to go to trial in Clark County Superior Court next month. But Golik said he’ll keep an eye on the outcome of the suit against Viktor Pell, now 86, and eight other unnamed defendants. Golik declined to say whether his office would bring criminal charges against Pell if a civil jury finds him responsible for Entezari’s death. Golik said the prosecutor’s office will continue to look at any information Gray and her attorneys bring forward.

“Our office, as always, is interested in seeking justice at any time in any case,” Golik said. “Law enforcement and this office have been looking at the things Pooneh (Gray) and her team of investigators have been putting forth, and we’ll continue to do so.”
