Angela Angenette McFadyen, 35, was found dead March 22, 1995, in the bathroom of a vacant residence behind 2137 Ocean View Boulevard in the Logan Heights neighborhood of San Diego. Officers called to a death report discovered that she had been strangled; the death was ruled a homicide. The property had been burglarized and her body was located during the homeowner’s inspection.

McFadyen was living at Casa de Franklin, a facility for people experiencing homelessness, at the time. Investigators noted she may have been engaged in prostitution, a factor mentioned as possibly related to the circumstances of her death. A few days earlier a transient had approached the Ocean View resident asking for food, was turned away, and then allegedly made threats to the resident or property; that person was never identified.

The San Diego Police Department’s Homicide Unit continues to seek information and a reward was offered for tips leading to an arrest and prosecution. If anyone knew Angela or has information about what happened, please contact the San Diego Police Homicide Unit or submit an anonymous tip through Crime Stoppers.
