Cekia Armstrong, 39, was found naked and discarded in a drainage ditch in Memphis, Tennessee, on August 1, 2014. An autopsy later determined she had been shot, and her death was investigated as a homicide. The discovery prompted immediate appeals for information, but investigators never announced an arrest or identified a suspect.

Armstrong’s case drew additional attention because of similarities to another nearby death months earlier: Nina Cook was also found naked in the same general area. Both women had faced personal challenges, including struggles with drug addiction, a factor mentioned as investigators explored possible motives and connections. Despite public speculation that a serial offender might be involved, no definitive link between the cases has been confirmed.

The case remains unsolved and cold. If anyone knew Cekia, her routines, acquaintances, or saw anything unusual in that part of Memphis in the summer of 2014, please share what you remember.
