On April 7, 1987, Nadine Elizabeth Frank, a 28-year-old woman from Columbus, Ohio, was brutally murdered near the intersection of Thurman Avenue and Wilson Avenue. Nadine was found with multiple stab wounds to her leg, arm, back, and chest. Despite medical efforts, she succumbed to her injuries at the scene. Her death was classified as a homicide, but decades later, it remains unsolved. There have been no arrests made, and the authorities still have not publicly identified any suspects.
The case has remained open as an unsolved homicide, with the Columbus Police Department leading the investigation. Local law enforcement, with assistance from the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation (BCI), continues to appeal to the public for information that might shed light on the circumstances surrounding Nadine Frank's death. The Ohio Attorney General's Office has featured Nadine's case on their unsolved homicide database to increase public awareness and encourage anyone with relevant information to come forward.
Nadine's death is part of a broader effort by Ohio authorities to solve cold cases and bring justice to victims and their families. The public is encouraged to provide any tips or leads, no matter how small, that could assist investigators in solving this tragic case and bringing closure to Nadine's loved ones.
