A chilling discovery – and recently-released emergency dispatch audio – offer new twists into a double-murder mystery that has baffled San Diego police.

Gianni Belvedere, 24, his fiancée Ilona Flint, 22, and his little brother Salvatore, 22, visited a San Diego shopping mall on Dec. 23. Early Christmas Eve morning, Ilona and Salvatore were found shot in their car outside the mall. Both would die from their wounds.

Before she died, Flint managed to call 911. Newly-released emergency dispatch audio identifies a potential suspect at the scene, someone who “possibly left in a 2008/2011 dark gray Honda Civic four-door.”

Gianni Belvedere – who has not been named a suspect in the case – hasn’t been seen since.

This past weekend, nearly a month after the shootings, Belvedere’s green Camry was found about 100 miles away with a man’s body inside the trunk. Police have yet to identify the body.

The smell caused a passer-by to call police. "I usually park in that same spot,” witness Gabby Alcarez said. “The odor is pretty strong, like when I passed by it.”

The Press-Enterprise captured video of officials towing away the vehicle. An autopsy will be performed this week to identify the body found in Belvedere’s car.

Investigators say they still have no suspects and no motive in the case, but they don't believe it was a robbery.

“As of this juncture, we still do not know a motive of why this occurred,” San Diego Police Lt. Mike Hastings said Dec. 26.

The family of Belvedere’s fiancé released a statement to ABC News overnight, expressing concern for the missing 24-year-old.

“We consider Gianni Belvedere to be our son as much as the Belvederes consider Ilona to be their daughter,” the statement reads. “The Belvedere and Flint-Jones families thank the media for respecting our privacy during this difficult time.”

So it looks like its the groom in the boot of the car? Very strange story

[invertigo]

My cousin dated a guy who was killed in the same way- locked in the trunk of his own car and left for dead in the Nevada desert- they found him 2 weeks later, but the M.E said he probably survived for 6 days before dying from dehydration.
I can't even imagine a more horrific way to go. Whoever is in the trunk, I sincerely hope they were already dead before getting stuffed in there.

Probably a really dumb question, but is there a latch inside the trunk? For instance, if a kid was accidently shut inside?

That's not a dumb question. I don't know for certain, but I think it's mandatory in newer cars. His car was a 2004 Toyota Camry. Anyone know about those? This case is crazy. I totally thought the guy killed his fiance and brother and then took off and either hid or killed himself where no one would find him. He could have placed himself in the trunk but it doesn't seem likely. So strange.

Damn. That is awful. I can't imagine what that would be like.

I just checked a article, somehow the family is saying its him. I dont know if they saw the body or not, the article didnt say. Cops say it was unidentifiable. Do you think he committed suicide? That would be a slow way to do it. I wonder who wanted them dead.

Damn! How did I miss this story?

I wonder who the baby is
