Jeanne M. Gilbert, 34, was working the night clerk shift at the Days Inn in Remington, Indiana, on March 3, 1989. The motel’s cash drawer had been pried open and $247 was missing when officers arrived. Jeanne’s purse and keys were left behind in an office, but she was gone.

Later that morning her nude body was found in a frozen ditch beside a rural county road near Brookston, about 19 miles away. She had been shot three times with a .22 caliber weapon and sexually assaulted. Scrapes on her body suggested she may have been dragged from a vehicle, and the uniform she wore when abducted has never been recovered.

Investigators later linked Jeanne’s murder to other attacks along the I-65 corridor, including the killing of Peggy Gill the same night and the 1987 slaying of Vicki Heath; ballistics and DNA tied several scenes together. In 2022 investigative genealogy identified Harry Edward Greenwell as the suspect, but he had died in 2013. Does anyone who knew Jeanne or worked at the Days Inn that night have information that could still help fill gaps in the timeline?
