Around 10:20am on December 11th, 1987 two utility workers found the body of a young woman in a small field in Grandview Heights, Ohio. Her body was found near the intersection of Burrell Ave and Higgs Ave, she was wearing a bright red sweater, jeans, and tennis shoes. No identification was found on or around the body. Authorities were notified, and since there was no ID, the woman was labeled as a Jane Doe. The police turned to the public for help identifying the young woman, describing her as a white female, 5 foot 5 inches tall, 97 pounds, with shoulder length light brown hair and blue/gray eyes. The medical examiner determined she had died from strangulation and had likely been placed in the field early on the eleventh. A few days later, on Monday, December 14th, a young man contacted police stating that his ex-girlfriend hadn’t been in contact and that the Jane Doe could be her. He wasn’t allowed to see her because he wasn’t family, so he tentatively identified her through photographs. The authorities then asked the woman’s father to come down to the morgue and he confirmed that it was his daughter. The young woman was Margaret Durant.

Episode 32: The 1987 murder of Margaret Durant

Part 1 of this episode:I am joined by Steven David Lampley to discuss the online courses he is giving on Serial Killer Profiling 101 and How to Catch a Liar.  Steven is a well-known law enforcement professional as well as a featured guest on many shows, and of course I cannot forget to mention: he’s also presented at CrimeCon!

There has been an update in the Veronica Blumhorst case; if you are interested in following this case, please see the group link down below. Part 2 of this episode:Margaret Durant was found raped and murdered in December of 1987; her case has been open and closed multiple times. The more I learn about this case, the angrier I get that it hasn’t been solved.  Shirley Cooper, Margaret’s sister, joins me on this week’s episode.  Shirley has become an advocate for her sister’s murder.  She is trying to raise awareness and get justice for her sister who was taken from this earth too soon. Again, the more you hear about the case…the more upset you will become that this injustice has been unsolved for this long. The content below has been pulled from the Ohio Attorney General’s website: On Friday, December 11th, 1987, at approximately 10:15 A.M., 21-year old Margaret Durant's body was discovered in a vacant lot at Higgs and Burrell Avenues in Grandview Heights, Ohio. Ms. Durant was last seen on December 10th, 1987 at 11:30 P.M, leaving her place of employment at the Limited Distribution Center on Morris Road in Columbus, Ohio. The Franklin County Coroner determined that Ms. Durant had died from cardiopulmonary arrest as a result of strangulation. Although several leads have been received and investigated, Ms. Durant's homicide still remains unsolved.
