Linda Ann Moody Armstrong was a 35-year-old Black woman found dead on the 1600 block of Bowers Street in Wilmington on January 5, 1993, near a building now known as the Howard R. Young Correctional Institution. Authorities say she suffered fatal injuries during a struggle after being seen getting into a pickup truck with two men; that sighting is one of the case’s central details.

Reports name the case under Linda Ann Moody or Linda Ann Moody Armstrong and identify the incident as a homicide, but do not name the two men or describe any confirmed arrests, charges, trials, or convictions. The Wilmington Police Department later listed the death as an unsolved cold case and asked the public to contact its Cold Case Unit or investigators with any tips.

If anyone knew Linda, saw her that night, or has information about the pickup truck and the two men, please come forward to assist the ongoing investigation.
