Steve Sadowski was 28 when he was killed on August 19, 1984, while hitchhiking in Columbus, Ohio. He was last seen near the Route 71 Northbound ramp at Frank Road, where an unknown person picked him up. Sadowski was later found dead of a gunshot wound from a small-caliber firearm.

The case remains unsolved. The Ohio Attorney General’s Office lists it among cold cases, and the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone with information to come forward to help bring closure to the family and justice for Sadowski.
