On the morning of November 14, 1993, the body of 27-year-old Sharon Glover, an African-American mother of two, was found in a ditch along Mount Olive Church Road in rural Caddo Parish, Louisiana. Investigators concluded she had been beaten and stabbed multiple times and that the killing likely occurred elsewhere before her body was left on the isolated road.

Detectives initially investigated people known to Sharon, including a former husband and a man she was divorcing, but DNA evidence cleared those early persons of interest and the inquiry went cold for many years. Decades later, advances in forensic technology produced a different prime suspect: someone who knew Sharon and lived near where her body was found. That person has not been publicly named and no arrests have been announced.

Sharon’s family has continued to feel the loss across generations; her son, who was six at the time, later wrote a book about how the unsolved murder affected his life. Anyone with information about Sharon or the people in her circle in 1993 is asked to come forward.
