🌺 THE NANCY ANDERSON CASE | Hawaii's 50-Year Cold Case Solved by Genetic Genealogy

On January 7th, 1972, 19-year-old Nancy Anderson was murdered in her Waikiki apartment just three months after moving from Michigan to Hawaii. For 50 years, her killer walked free—even building a career as a Nevada Deputy Attorney General. Then in 2022, genetic genealogy and a son's voluntary DNA sample finally revealed the truth.

This is the story of the longest cold case in our series, and how science reached back half a century to deliver justice to Nancy and her family.

⚖️ LEGAL OUTCOME:

🌺 REMEMBERING NANCY:
Nancy Elaine Anderson (March 18, 1952 - January 7, 1972) was an adventurous young woman who moved from Bay City, Michigan to Honolulu seeking new experiences. She loved Hawaii's warmth and beauty. She worked at McDonald's in Ala Moana Center. She was building a new life when it was tragically stolen after just three months on the island.

She should be remembered for who she was—a brave, adventurous nineteen-year-old with dreams—not just for how she died.
