The Greenville County Sheriff’s Office (GCSO) is seeking the public’s help in a murder that took place 46 years ago. According to the sheriff’s office, on July 11th, 1978, the bodies of two Asheville residents, Donna McKracken, 22, and David Clemishaw, 28, were found along a creek bed by a migrant farmer on Barton Road in Tigerville. Their cause of death was strangulation. Officials said the pair’s car was found several days later in North Carolina.
Deputies said after several years of following up on leads stemming from multiple states, the case went cold. Recently, the sheriff’s office said the GCSO Cold Case Unit reopened the investigation to re-examine old evidence and look for new leads. Anyone with information can remain anonymous and call Crime Stoppers of Greenville at 23-CRIME.
The reopening of this 46-year-old cold case sheds new light on the tragedy that struck two young individuals more than four decades ago. The GCSO’s commitment to solving long-standing cases demonstrates their dedication to seeking justice and closure for the victims and their families.
This development also serves as a reminder of the enduring impact of unsolved crimes on communities and the importance of ongoing efforts to solve such cases. The public’s support and cooperation are instrumental in providing crucial information that could lead to solving cold cases and bringing perpetrators to justice.
As the investigation into the murders of Donna McKracken and David Clemishaw is reignited, the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office is determined to uncover the truth behind this heinous crime. The passage of time should not diminish the significance of seeking justice for the victims and their loved ones.
Authorities are urging anyone with information,, no matter how small or seemingly insignificant, to come forward and assist in the investigation. Every detail, every lead could be the key to finally solving this cold case and providing closure to those affected by this tragic event.
Crime Stoppers of Greenville is a vital resource for individuals who wish to provide information while remaining anonymous. The option to report tips without revealing one’s identity ensures that crucial details can be shared without fear of retaliation.
In a case as complex and long-standing as this, any information, no matter how minor it may seem, could be the missing piece needed to solve the mystery and bring those responsible to justice. The community’s assistance is invaluable in supporting law enforcement’s efforts to crack this cold case.
