A Half-Century of Silence

A 17-year-old high school junior, Mary Kay Heese, was brutally murdered in 1969, and it’s still a mystery. The fact that her case remains unsolved after five decades is a pretty damning indictment of the system. It’s not like they didn’t have leads – they just didn’t have any that panned out.
