Cold Case of the Week: The 1998 Murder of Yale Student Suzanne Jovin
- Apr 26, 2017
The Crime
On an unseasonably warm winter day in New Haven on December 4[SUP]th[/SUP], 1998, Jovin finished cleaning up after a pizza party for Best Buddies. A friend who saw her on campus at about 9:25 PM recalled that she said she was very tired. She also mentioned needing to pick up some borrowed GRE study materials. Around a half-hour later, she was found about two miles away from campus with multiple stab wounds to her head and neck. Passersby and neighbors said they heard a womans screams. The 911 call came in just before 10 PM. Jovin died at Yale New Haven Hospital later that night.
The running man: David Cameron, a political science professor at Yale and a member of the states Eyewitness Identification Task Force (established to examine issues related to criminal lineups), has studied and written about the case. The investigation continues, he wrote to A&E in an email. He thinks that its pretty obvious who did it: the running man. An eyewitness saw a man running across Whitney Avenue and told the police shortly after the murder, according to published reports. The team of former state police investigators had a police artist sketch made.

Jovins friends and members of the Yale community have continued to commemorate the anniversary of her death, according to the Yale Daily News. In what looks like a studio yearbook photo, she smiles prettily from the cold case file on the website of the Connecticut Division of Criminal Justice. The caption reads: We are interested in all available information or leads, no matter how remote or trivial that information may seem We want to hear from anyone who has heard something, seen something, or may even have repressed the knowledge of something related to the murder.
Next year [2018] will be the 20[SUP]th[/SUP] anniversary of Suzanne Jovins death. Yale and the state of Connecticut are offering a reward of up to $150,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of her killer.
