On May 26, 1980, 40-year-old William White was found dead in a Knights Inn Motel room near Interstate 75 and Tylersville Road in Union Township, now West Chester, Ohio. White had driven up from Georgia with a female acquaintance and was visiting people in the Dayton and Cincinnati areas while trying to establish business relationships connected to strip tease shows.

Authorities determined White died of blunt force trauma. His silver Trans Am with Florida plates was at the scene. The West Chester Police Department has jurisdiction and the case remains unsolved; investigators have asked the public for information to help resolve the homicide.

If anyone knew William, his travel companions, or saw the Trans Am in the area around May 26, 1980, contact the West Chester Police Department with what they remember.
