The Murdered Shana Renee Price

The Murdered
Shana Renee Price
Blunt Park, Springfield, Massachusetts

๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ Justice for Shana Renee Price ๐Ÿ’”

On the morning after Christmas in 1990, 17 year old Shana Renee Price, a young mother with a baby son, was found murdered near the entrance of Blunt Park in Springfield, Massachusetts. Her tragic case went largely unnoticed for years, but new hope emerged in 2022 when DNA evidence led to a composite sketch of a possible suspect. Now, nearly 35 years later, investigators are using advanced forensic genetic genealogy and community DNA outreach to identify distant relatives and generate new leads. Two phenotype reports were created to show what the killer looked like. 

Shanaโ€™s family continues to wait for answers, and authorities urge anyone with information to contact the Springfield Police Detective Bureau at 413-787-6355 or Text-A-Tip by texting 274637 with โ€œSOLVEโ€ followed by your tip. ๐Ÿงฌ๐Ÿ’™
