Teaira Whitehead, known as TT, was 16 when her body was found along a trail in Pittsburgh’s Riverview Park on the afternoon of October 6, 2014. Joggers discovered her nude at the bottom of a hill; bleach had been poured on her body, a detail investigators noted as an apparent attempt to destroy DNA. The last known contact with the Homewood teenager was the evening before she was found.

An autopsy and toxicology testing announced in January 2015 ruled her death an accidental overdose from a combination of heroin and two over-the-counter cold and cough medications. Police kept the probe open to determine whether her death involved a drug delivery, a felony in Pennsylvania if someone supplied the fatal dose. There have been no public announcements of arrests or identified suspects, and who may have been with Teaira in her final hours remains unknown.

Did anyone in the community know Teaira’s whereabouts or who she spent time with in early October 2014?
