HAMILTON, Ohio (AP) - A southwest Ohio Sheriff’s Office has reopened the 40-year-old unsolved slaying of a college student whose body was found more than a month after she was seen leaving her part-time job at a Cincinnati fast-food restaurant.
The Hamilton-Middletown Journal-News reports Butler County Sheriff’s Detective Joe Ventre said additional tests are being conducted in the investigation of 18-year-old Nancy Theobold’s murder but wouldn’t provide further details.
The University of Cincinnati student’s body was found in December 1977 in Butler County’s West Chester Township with a rope around her neck and her hands bound.
