Who killed Wanda June Anderson and Glenda Faye Mitchell, 11, and Reba Key Green, 14?

It’s a question Nashville investigators hope to answer, more than 55 years after their deaths. The three girls are the Metro Nashville Police Department’s oldest homicide cases, featured on a new website launched Monday.

The website, nashvillecoldcase.govfeatures cases of homicides, unidentified persons, and disappearances from the mid-1960s to 2023.

Investigators hope this will preserve the memory of those killed and give visibility to their cases “in order to bring to justice those responsible for these acts of violence and achieve a solution for the families of homicide victims and missing persons.” “.

“The website entries, many of which are accompanied by photographs, provide details of the cases/investigations in the hope that people in our community, even years or decades later, might provide information that could give detectives with new leads and, ultimately, answers to their questions from the victims’ families,” the department said in a statement.

The cold case unit, made up of two supervisors, five homicide investigators and two missing persons investigators, does not consider a case closed until it has reached at least one year with no leads or viable arrest.

“Over the past 50 to 60 years, detective teams have worked diligently on these cases which, unfortunately, have remained stalled due to lack of witness information and investigative leads,” said Chief John Drake in the release. “I hope that the continued availability of details of closed cases via the Internet will refresh memories and lead to further progress.” »

Anyone with information about any of these cases is asked to speak to police and can provide information anonymously. Tips can be emailed to [email protected] or call Crime Stoppers at 615-742-7463.
