Amy Diesman was 19 when she was shot and killed while working the overnight shift at a Stop-N-Go in Pierce Township, Ohio, on September 12, 1987. She had recently started the job and was alone when an unknown assailant shot her in the head with a .25 caliber automatic around 5:28 AM; the store’s last recorded sale was just before the shooting. A customer found her behind the counter and alerted authorities shortly after 5:30 AM. There were no signs of a struggle or sexual assault, and the firearm was never recovered.

Amy was a student at Northern Kentucky University and a graduate of New Richmond High School; her death prompted a track award and scholarship in her memory and the store offered a $10,000 reward for information. In 1993 Amy’s then-boyfriend, Scott Lee Austin, was named a person of interest and indicted by a county grand jury, but charges were dismissed as witnesses recanted or evidence failed to materialize. The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation and Pierce Township Police list the case as unsolved and continue to investigate. Does anyone have information that could help resolve this case?
