Cold Case Files: Timothy Chipley Homicide Remains Unsolved
Snip:
His body was found in a pond at Countrywood Apartments off north Dale Mabry Highway just south of Fletcher Avenue.
His case is one of hundreds of unsolved homicide cases that the Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office is hoping to close. In Carrollwood, the number of unsolved homicides is difficult to determine due to a number of factors, including geographical boundaries and an outdated list of unsolved cases on the sheriff's office's website.
Of the 90 unsolved homicide cases listed on the website, about seven — including Timothy's — fall under the boundaries Patch adheres to for Carrollwood: Gaither High School on the northern end, Linebaugh Avenue on the southern end, the Veterans Expressway on the western end and Interstate 275 on the eastern end.
Three years after he was killed in Carrollwood, Timothy's case is one that continues to haunt detectives looking for clues.
"I think there's somebody out there with information," said Detective Mitch Messer, who was working in the homicide unit of the sheriff's office when Timothy was killed. "I'm hoping this starts a fire under someone to share what information they have."
His cause of death was not released, but Messer said that Timothy died of upper body trauma. Chipley said her son's death certificate said he had been asphyxiated.
