Kelly Tinyes & Robert Golub: Tinyes & Golub case renewed (photo)

By Therese Lisieux on March 4th, 2009



Kelly Tinyes was killed on March 3, 1989. Kelly Tinyes, 13, was stabbed, strangled, kicked and mutilated. Tinyes’ nude body was found in the basement of a house in Long Island.

A man, Robert Golub, then 21, was convicted and sentenced for the murder of Kelly Tinyes. There were suspicions that he may have had accomplices who participated in the brutal murder of Tinyes.

Twenty years later, on Monday, March 2, on the eve of the anniversary of the death of Kelly Tinyes, the Nassau County D.A. Kathleen Rice revealed that she had more information on the murder case of Kelly Tinyes.

Robert Golub did not testify during his trial. After his sentence, Golub broke his silence to deny any involvement in killing Kelly Tinyes.

The Tinyes family and Golub family knew one another in the neighbourhood as they lived across the street from one another. The children of both families mixed and mingled. Kelly Tinyes’ brother, Richard Tinyes Jr, then 8, said someone on the phone named John asked to speak to Kelly. John could have been Robert Golub’s younger brother, John J Golub. John Golub was not charged.

Robert Golub is expected to be freed in 2015.

People are waiting in anticipation for the evidence the DA will reveal.

    The prosecutors and investigator in this case seriously missed a lot. The AGE of John Golub and his friends who were in the house seem to have clouded peoples minds on who could have committed such a crime. DNA does not tell the whole story. Covering for a brother might have created a monster.

    Kelly will get the justice she deserves, its been 20 years people, come forward and tell what you know, there are plenty of websites blogs an forums dedicated to her, please get involved!

    first of all all i wanna say is that this Guy Robert Golub should not be getting out of prison and should stay in there until he dies or until some other prisoner kills him in there. Kelly Tinyes was a very young and very sweet good girl and she should of not been put through this. this was a very very sad story and Robert and his younger brother should both be killed. Anyways he should not get the right to be out free on 2015. all i can say is that if he does get out he better be watching his back bc its like the saying says you can run but you cant hide and THATS ONE THING THAT HE GONNA START WORRYING ABOUT CAUSE HE IS ALL MINE I WILL FIND HIM AND KILL HIM MY SELF. ROBERT GOLUB YOUR TIME IS UP AND YOU HAVE LESS THAN A COUPLE OF YEARS TO LIVE UNTIL YOU DIE YOU SICK BASTARED.
