The Murdered Tiona Smith

Tiona Smith
Baltimore County, Maryland

🙏 Justice for Tiona Smith 💔

On the night of November 5, 2005, 23 year old Tiona Smith left her job at a McDonald’s in Cockeysville, Maryland, boarded an MTA bus, and was last seen getting into a small four-door car at Eutaw and Fayette streets in Baltimore City. The next morning, her body was discovered behind the 6800 block of Fox Meadow Road, still wearing her work uniform; the medical examiner ruled her death a homicide caused by multiple sharp force injuries. Loved ones remember Tiona as kind, easygoing, and generous, with dreams of working with children with special needs, and no known enemies. Despite a thorough investigation, the case went cold, though police continue to pursue leads and test DNA evidence. Over 20 years later, her mother remains steadfast in seeking justice, urging anyone with information to come forward as investigators continue their search for answers. 

If you have any further information, please contact the Baltimore County Police Department at 410-887-3943 or the Metro Crime Stoppers at 1-866-7-LOCKUP.🕯️💙
