Donna Arrasmith, 52, was found murdered in La Conner, Washington, on the evening of July 26, 1993. She worked at Happy Valley Farms, a gift shop in the Pier 7 Wharf building on South First Street, and was last seen alive at about 5:15 p.m. while preparing to close the shop. The building’s owner-manager discovered her body in a storage area around 6:00 p.m. An autopsy determined she died from multiple stab wounds.

La Conner’s four-person police force led the investigation with help from the Washington State Patrol, the Skagit County Sheriff’s Office, and the Swinomish Tribe. Investigators processed the scene, removed a section of flooring as evidence, and dredged the nearby Swinomish Channel searching for a weapon; nothing was recovered. Motive was unclear and authorities could not confirm whether anything had been stolen. No arrests were made and no official suspects were named, and the case eventually went cold.

Does anyone who lived in La Conner at the time recall unusual activity near Pier 7 Wharf that evening or have information that could shed light on Donna’s murder?
