Sarah Anne Elizabeth Kashka was 15 when she disappeared from Fort Worth on the evening of December 30, 1984. She had been visiting friends and was last seen near the Wedgwood Terrace Apartments, reportedly planning to visit a friend across the street from a Dairy Queen. Her body was found January 1, 1985, in a swampy area near Mountain Creek in southwest Dallas County.

Investigators determined Sarah had been raped and stabbed multiple times, with wounds to her neck and chest. Her killing was linked by authorities to a string of similar homicides in the Fort Worth and Dallas areas that targeted young women who went missing under mysterious circumstances in a concentrated area over a few months. A task force questioned several suspects; one man, Remsen Newbold Wolff, was held for investigation and his apartment searched for photographs of victims, including Sarah, but there was insufficient evidence to charge him and he was released.

Sarah’s murder remains unsolved. If anyone knew Sarah, saw her on December 30, 1984, or has information about the pattern of killings in the area, please come forward.
