VioletJ, do you know if J4S's dad was ever questioned? Do you recall if the names of any other suspects were released? I am curious to know what made these particular people suspects. (the 5 suspects that were mentioned in the news article)


Were you in touch with the police after the initial investigation? Were there any rumors about who did it?

Thanks in advance.

This is all extremely valuable information for the forum. However, we like to make sure that anyone posting as a professional in a specific area (doctor, lawyer, search and rescue, etc.), or as someone with inside information, truly is what/who they claim to be. Verification is 100% optional. No posters are required to become verified unless they wish to post inside or professional information.

I guess I'm guilty of a major breach in ettiquette, mea culpa.
I didn't want to post something that MIGHT be relevant to this case, because I didn't want to screw up in public.
Something about this case grabbed my attention, and I started reading the posts. The further I got, the more I wondered, and finally, I was running out of time to read and wanted to tell you so I sent a PM to someone. Basically, it's this:

A young woman was found deceased in East Pittsburgh, PA under the Westinghouse Bridge, somewhere along the creek, near the railroad tracks, near the Triboro Hwy. It was the morning after the final night of the Turtle Creek Volunteer Firemen's Fair, in June. Most likely 79-83. I'm thinking more like 81-82. I don't remember if she was clothed or not, but she had been 'strangled, drowned, set on fire, etc.' They released information on a class ring that was found and that's how they got her ID. Her maiden name was Susan Savage, she had graduated from high school possibly in 1971. I'm thinking Wilkinsburg, but it could have been Penn Hills. Her family lived on Laketon Road.
She was last seen late the night before leaving a bar, some said with an unknown man.
The town is small and it would have been very unusual for someone local to be unknown to everyone. Several years earlier, she had been a married mom of young children. By this time, she was at least separated from her husband, and was supposed to be living in an apartment with her children and mother.
Someone heard on a scanner sometime around 6-8 am that a body had been reported.
As far as I know the person wasn't caught. The more I read on here the more I wondered if these two murders were related and if there were possibly other victims in other places as well.

Spoke to detective says there may not be anything that can be done in this case. Looks like most likely the files and stuff were lost. Sad!!!! Says he will pass on the stuff we have to a few more people and give him another two weeks. So I don't know what to say but thanks to all the help you guys have given me. The most important thing and biggest blessing of all was I was able to find my mothers best friend my Auntie Violet and she is back in my life (I love you). This was one hard journey and it stinks that it stops here and I pray it doesn't but not sure what else to do but live my life to the fullest possible and know that she is in heaven watching over me. Things all happen for a reason I was able to become a stronger person and look at my life and make some major changes because I am not done in this life yet and the road was looking dim but now there is light there.
