Cindy Rader was 17 when she was found dead in her Dayton apartment on January 3, 1975. She was discovered at her residence on Westmont Avenue in Montgomery County, and her killing has remained unsolved for decades, making it one of the oldest cold cases in the Dayton region.

Local law enforcement and the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Investigation have been involved in the inquiry, and the Dayton Police Department and the Ohio Attorney General’s Office have sought public help. No arrests or identifying leads have been announced, and the case remains open as authorities encourage anyone with information, even small details, to come forward.

Does anyone have memories, tips, or information about Cindy, her neighborhood, or that time in Dayton that could help investigators?
