Sharon Massey was 29 when her remains were found in Sacramento in April 1987. Her body was discovered in a yard in the same location where a teenage girl’s remains had earlier been unearthed, and advanced decomposition made it difficult to determine an exact cause of death. Investigators linked her killing to a series of bodies found buried in or around properties connected to Morris Solomon Jr., a former handyman who often exchanged repair work for room and board and had a history as a committed mentally disordered sex offender.

Authorities arrested Solomon on April 22, 1987, after finding two victims at his residence; Massey’s remains were recovered on April 29. He was charged with seven counts of first-degree murder, was convicted in 1991 of six counts including Massey’s, and a second jury sentenced him to death in 1992. Solomon denied responsibility for the killings. Does anyone have information about Sharon Massey’s life in Sacramento or knew her circle at that time?
