Stephanie Faye Gawboy, 52, was found dead inside her Redway, California, home on August 17, 2016. A KMUD radio employee who sometimes stayed at her house discovered the body after noticing the gate ajar and the door open; Gawboy was lying facedown on her massage table with blood on both sides of her neck. The Humboldt County Sheriff’s Office confirmed her identity and opened a homicide investigation.

Detective Jenn Turner has been leading the inquiry and asked for information from anyone who had contact with Gawboy after August 12, 2016. Despite numerous tips and leads, no suspects have been identified. Gawboy was known locally as an outspoken environmentalist and a leader in anti-vaccine and anti-genetically modified food efforts, and her death deeply affected her community.

Anyone who had contact with Stephanie Gawboy in mid-August 2016 or who has information about her activities or contacts in that period is asked to come forward.
