Jordan Burke was 26 when he was found dead at his home at 1340 Michelle Court in Columbus, Ohio on February 24, 1978. He had suffered a fatal gunshot wound to his torso. The Columbus Police Department investigated but developed few leads, and the case went cold.

The Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation has kept Burke’s homicide in its list of unsolved cases and works with the Columbus Police Department and the Attorney General’s Office to seek tips and investigative comparisons with other unsolved killings. Authorities say public tips and small details could be valuable to reopening lines of inquiry.

If anyone has information about Jordan Burke, his movements before February 24, 1978, or anything unusual around Michelle Court at that time, please contact the Columbus Police Department or the Ohio BCI.
