In the autumn of 2020, the life of 33-year-old Meghan Jewes was tragically cut short in Evansville, Indiana. On the evening of Halloween, October 31, 2020, police responded to a vehicle collision at the intersection of Kentucky Avenue and Keck Avenue. Inside the vehicle, they discovered Meghan, not suffering from injuries sustained in the crash, but from a single, fatal gunshot wound.
The Vanderburgh County Coroner would later confirm that this was the cause of her death, immediately classifying the case as a homicide.
Meghan, who was also known by her maiden name of Megan Wozniak, was a mother to five children. In the wake of her death, friends and family remembered her as a dedicated parent and a cherished coworker in the hospitality industry where she worked. Her sudden and violent death left a profound void in the lives of those who knew and loved her.
The investigation into Meghan Jewes' murder was launched by the Evansville Police Department. Despite their efforts and public appeals for information, the case has remained unsolved. As of now, no suspects have been publicly identified, and no arrests have been made in connection with her killing. Her death contributed to a number of unsolved homicides in Evansville during that year. The investigation into who is responsible for the death of Meghan Jewes remains open as her family and community continue to await justice.
