Lori Nesson

Ohio Attorney General Dave Yost and Reynoldsburg Division of Police Chief Curtis Baker today announced that forensic testing has solved the 1974 killing of a 15-year-old girl. Lori Nesson, an honors student at Columbus’ Eastmoor High School, was found deceased on Sept. 28, 1974, on the west side of Reynoldsburg. She had last been seen after a school football game the night before. Constrained by the technology available at the time, the case grew cold as investigators were unable to figure out what had happened to Lori.
