Lauren Wagner was 18 when she was murdered on November 28, 1977; her body was found the next day on the west side of Mount Washington at 1217 Cliff Drive in Glassell Park. She was a college student living with her parents in the San Fernando Valley.

Lauren’s killing was attributed to the pair known as the Hillside Stranglers, Kenneth Bianchi and Angelo Buono, who operated in Los Angeles between October 1977 and February 1978. The series included the kidnapping, rape, torture and strangulation of multiple female victims aged roughly 12 to 28; the perpetrators were later linked through an investigation that expanded beyond Los Angeles.

Both Bianchi and Buono were ultimately apprehended and convicted and received life terms without the possibility of parole. Did anyone who knew Lauren or saw her around late November 1977 have information that could add detail to her last days?
