In a chilling tale of tragedy and unresolved mystery, the murder of Dana Chisholm remains a haunting cold case nearly 28 years after her brutal death. The 25-year-old was found strangled in her Washington, D.C. apartment on February 27, 1995, just hours after her family received a harrowing phone call from a man impersonating a police officer, falsely claiming she had been arrested.

Dana’s life was filled with promise; she had dreams of becoming a singer and had recently moved to D.C. for a fresh start. But beneath the surface, turmoil brewed. Just days before her murder, she confided to a co-worker that she was pregnant, a revelation that left her visibly distressed. Her friends and family reported her absence from work on February 27, raising alarm bells that prompted them to check on her.

Upon entering her apartment, her landlady discovered the horrific scene: Dana’s body lay lifeless, with signs of a struggle evident in the disarray of her belongings. Investigators quickly ruled out robbery, leading them to believe that Dana may have known her 𝓀𝒾𝓁𝓁er. As they delved into her personal life, they uncovered a trove of contacts from personal ads, each leading them to dead ends.

The plot thickened with the untraceable call to her parents, leaving them in a state of confusion and despair. Despite extensive investigations over the years, the true perpetrator has never been identified, and the case remains cold. A $25,000 reward is still offered for information leading to an arrest, but as time drags on, hope dims.
