Colette Smart, an African-American woman, was found stabbed multiple times in her bedroom at an apartment on the 1400 block of Columbia Road NW in Washington, D.C., on May 2, 1991. The scene indicated a violent struggle. The Metropolitan Police Department’s Homicide Branch led the investigation and canvassed the neighborhood, but the trail went cold.

No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests have been made. The case remains open and unsolved; the city is offering a reward of up to $25,000 for information leading to an arrest and conviction. Any detail, no matter how small, could be important — does anyone have information about Colette Smart or that block of Columbia Road in 1991?
