Brenda Mitchell, 38, was found dead on April 9, 1992, in a vacant building in Highland Park, Michigan. Investigators determined she had been sexually assaulted and strangled. Her killing was linked to a series of similar murders along the Woodward Avenue corridor in Detroit and Highland Park, where women were reportedly lured—often with the promise of drugs—into abandoned buildings and killed.

Authorities later identified Benjamin Tony Atkins as the attacker responsible for a string of murders in the area between December 1991 and August 1992. A survivor, Darlene Saunders, identified Atkins on the street; he was arrested on August 21, 1992, and during a lengthy interrogation confessed to multiple killings. He was subsequently charged with first-degree murder in relation to those cases.

Does anyone have information about Brenda Mitchell’s life or movements in early 1992 that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
