Do you know who murdered Eileen Kelly?
In the winter of 1974, a young woman's life was tragically cut short, leaving a mystery that has lingered for decades. Eighteen-year-old Eileen Marie Kelly, a recent high school graduate with a new secretarial job at the Department of Justice, had her whole future ahead of her. On December 13, she left her office with plans to meet her father to look at a new car she was excited to buy. However, she never arrived, and a shadow of concern fell over her family when she failed to return home.
