Cold Case: 36-Year-Old Murder Getting A New Look
Updated: Thu 8:29 PM, Mar 26, 2015 By: Ed Pearce
RENO, NV - February 1, 1979, 21-year-old Julia Woodward left her home in San Rafael, California. A friend dropped her off at the San Francisco Airport. She'd told her parents she was going to Reno or Lake Tahoe to look for a job.
Where she went, what she did, who she met here is unknown. But March 24, nearly two months later, her body was found near Eagle Canyon in Hungry Valley, 15 miles north of Reno. She had been struck on the back of the head, apparently killed where she lay.
[...]
And they were left with an eerie coincidence which may or may not be related, a second body also of a young woman with similar fatal injuries found the same year a short distance away.
[...]
Anyone with information that might help is asked to call the Washoe County Sheriff's Office or Secret Witness, which has posted a $2,500 reward for information leading to arrest and prosecution. The number is 322-4900.
