Gerald Bricca, 26; his wife Linda Bricca, 23; and their daughter Debbie, 4, were murdered in their Greenway Avenue home in Green Township, Cincinnati, on or around September 25, 1966. Gerald was last seen at about 10:00 p.m. on September 25 after returning from work and taking trash cans to the curb. He missed a business trip flight the next morning and could not be reached by a co-worker.

Neighbors noticed newspapers piling up, trash cans left at the curb, the porch light on, the TV running for a couple of days, and the family’s two dogs not being let out. On September 27 neighbors opened the unlocked front door; one recognized the smell of decomposition and summoned the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office. Gerald and Linda were found in their bedroom with multiple stab wounds to chest, neck and face; Gerald had nine stab wounds and a sock stuffed in his mouth with a small piece of medical tape. Linda had eight stab wounds and was lying on top of Gerald. Debbie was found in her bedroom with four stab wounds to her back that went completely through her body. Both adults had been bound at some point and any binding material was not recovered.

More than 400 interviews were conducted with anyone remotely connected to the family. Does anyone have memories, records, or leads about the Briccas or their neighborhood in 1966 that could shed light on who might have done this?
