On February 16, 1981, 22-year-old Donna L. Edgar was reported missing by her family in Akron, Ohio. After more than a month of searching, her body was found in a wooded field near the area of Juneau Avenue and Storer Avenue in Akron, Summit County. Donna had been shot, and her death was ruled a homicide. The specific timeline of her death remains unclear, as her remains were not discovered until several weeks later, on March 27, 1981.
The Akron Police Department conducted the investigation, but despite efforts, no suspects were identified, and the case remains unsolved to this day. The authorities are still urging anyone with information about this case to come forward, as they continue to seek justice for Donna and closure for her family. The Ohio Attorney General's Office has included Donna Edgar's case in their database of unsolved homicides in hopes of generating new leads and bringing visibility to her case.
If you have any information that could help solve this case, you are encouraged to contact law enforcement or submit a tip to assist investigators.
