- 1981 St. Patricks Day murder remains unsolved
- "Essentially, her older son who was 16 years of age, had gotten of the school bus coming home from Bel Air High School, around 3 p.m. and walked into the kitchen of their family residence to find his mother on the floor bound by her ankles and her hands. She appeared to have blunt force trauma to her head and had been stabbed," Sergent said.
It's believed Hayes interrupted an armed robbery before she was killed.
"She was still wearing her rain coat and things of that nature," Sergent said. "So it appears she possibly came home and interrupted a burglary in progress."
Detective Sergent doesn't think Marlene Hayes was targeted.'' - Cold Case Archive - Harford County Sheriff's Office
