Georgia Haggai, a prominent businesswoman in San Diego, was tragically murdered on March 31, 1986. She was found dead in her home on Dichondra Court in Scripps Ranch, having been shot multiple times. The incident occurred just before dawn, around 5 a.m., when neighbors were awakened by the sound of gunshots. Upon arrival, police discovered Haggai lying in her entryway, dressed in a robe, with multiple gunshot wounds to her head and upper body.
The front door was open, but there were no signs of forced entry or struggle, suggesting that Haggai might have known her assailant. A neighbor reported seeing a suspect fleeing the scene immediately after the gunfire, but the suspect was never identified.
Haggai was a well-known figure in the community, owning and operating Georgia's Inc., a temporary personnel service for bookkeepers and accountants. She was also an active member of the Soroptimists and a physical fitness enthusiast. Despite her prominence and the apparent personal nature of the crime, no arrests have been made in connection with her murder. The case remains unsolved, with little physical evidence left behind by the killer. The lack of shell casings and the absence of a clear suspect description have hindered the investigation.
Over the years, Haggai's family, particularly her niece Christa Ramey, has continued to seek justice and answers regarding her death. Ramey has publicly appealed for anyone with information to come forward, emphasizing the need for closure and justice for her aunt. The San Diego Police Department has kept the case open, urging anyone with tips to contact them. Despite the passage of nearly four decades, the mystery surrounding Georgia Haggai's murder persists, leaving her family and the community with unresolved questions and a deep sense of loss.
