Mary Hebeler, 71, was reported missing on February 24, 1986. Her body was found more than two months later on April 27, 1986, by a passerby under a bridge north of the Josephinum off State Route 23 in Worthington, Ohio. Her remains were located in a secluded area and the coroner concluded her injuries were consistent with a fall, but investigators have not determined whether foul play was involved.

The Franklin County Sheriff’s Office led the investigation, which remains open. Hebeler’s life before her death included struggles that led some in the community to label her the town drunk; a recent podcast episode titled Dead Before Deadline explores her background and the person behind that label. There have been no significant leads reported and no suspects publicly identified.

Does anyone who knew Mary or who was in the Worthington area in early 1986 have information that could help investigators?
