A 74 year old woman is found deceased inside of her home
Carrie Mae Crowe, a 74-year-old resident of Redding, California, was brutally murdered on September 11, 1980, inside her home on Oxford Lane. Crowe was found stabbed at least 20 times in what appeared to be a violent and targeted attack. Her murder shocked the local community, as she was well-known and respected. Despite intensive investigations by the Redding Police Department, including gathering evidence from the crime scene and questioning potential suspects, her case has remained unsolved for decades.
Crowe's violent death left a profound mark on the community, with efforts over the years to revive the investigation through various means, but no arrests or substantial leads have emerged. The case remains one of Redding’s oldest unsolved homicides, continuing to be a source of pain for her family and a challenge for law enforcement.
