Remembering 14 year old Reba Kay Green of Nashville, whose unsolved murder took place in the middle of the night/early Sunday morning, January 9th, 1966, 50 years ago tomorrow.
This is one of three unsolved murders of young girls in Nashville in the 1960s, the other two being Wanda June Anderson in 1965 and Kathy Jones in 1969.
Reba Kay was asleep in her bed lying next to her twin sister, Rita Shay, when someone mysteriously entered their house at 1820 Nassau Street, stabbed her once in her left chest, and left. She died before she was brought to General Hospital. Her twin sister was left unharmed. Eight people were in the house at the time. Her 19 year old brother, Neal, found her, and yelled out to wake the family. A 9 year old sister, Georgia Diane, told police she saw a man standing over her sister Reba Kay, but her mother said she doubted this.
