Annie Lee Stewart, also known as Anna Stewart, was a 32-year-old woman who was murdered on October 11, 1981, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her body was found the next day, October 12, 1981, in a wooded area behind an apartment complex in Grove City, Ohio. The cause of death was determined to be manual strangulation.

Samuel Little later admitted to strangling Stewart in Cincinnati and said he transported her body to Grove City and disposed of it there. Decades after the killing, Hamilton County Prosecutor Joseph T. Deters and Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O’Brien announced an indictment charging Little with Stewart’s murder; at that time he was already serving three consecutive life sentences in California. If convicted on the indictment announced by those prosecutors, the charging document carried a sentence of 15 years to life.

Stewart’s killing was one of many cold cases linked to Little as authorities compared his confessions to old autopsy reports. Does anyone have information about Stewart’s life in Cincinnati or her last known movements around October 11, 1981?
