Kathy Morris, a 23-year-old woman from Fairbanks, Alaska, was found fatally stabbed in her Slater Drive apartment on October 1, 1983. Her friend Jerry Elrod was discovered with her; both deaths were the result of stabbing wounds in what investigators described as a double homicide inside the residence. Detectives canvassed the apartment complex and worked to reconstruct the victims’ final hours after the brutal scene drew an intense police response.

No arrests were announced in the immediate aftermath, and the person or persons responsible have not been publicly identified. The case remains listed among Fairbanks cold homicides and is still cited in compilations of unsolved murders and local crime archives. Who entered that apartment and why the attack occurred are still unanswered — anyone with information about Kathy or that night is asked to come forward.
