Pamela Edie, 34, was found murdered inside her family’s Capitol Hill home in Washington, D.C., on the afternoon of February 23, 1979. The children, ages 7 and 9, discovered their mother on an upper level, alerted a neighbor who called police, and officers later determined she had been beaten with a blunt instrument, choked, and stabbed to death.

Edie had recently moved from California with her husband and two young sons and was known locally as a cook who hosted a food-focused program on WAMU-FM. Investigators initially considered a burglary gone wrong but uncovered no clear motive, and no solid leads or specific suspects emerged.

Decades later the homicide remains unsolved, no arrests have been announced, and police have offered a reward for information. Does anyone remember living on E Street NE in 1979 or have information that could help bring Pamela’s killer to justice?
