On January 3, 1987, Elizabeth Medrano, a resident of Dayton, Ohio, was tragically murdered. Law enforcement discovered her death at a Montgomery County location, where Medrano was found with indications of foul play. The Dayton Police Department classified her case as a homicide, and despite investigative efforts, it remains unsolved to this day.
Medrano’s case is part of Ohio’s cold cases, with periodic appeals from law enforcement and the Ohio Attorney General's Office seeking
new information from the public. The authorities encourage anyone with knowledge that could assist in solving the case to contact the Dayton Police or submit tips through the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation’s cold case unit. This ongoing effort aims to bring resolution and justice for Medrano’s family and the Dayton community, with hopes that even small details may lead to breakthroughs in the investigation.
