Summary

Between 1978 and 1990, several murder victims were found along major highways in the US, in states including Tennessee, Arkansas, Kentucky, Mississippi, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia. Many of the victims were unidentified for years, but they all had one thing in common: they were all redheads or had reddish-colored hair. Because of this detail, the series of murders became known as the redhead murders, but they all remain unsolved to this day; however, there are at least 5, likely many more, murders that may be connected and still sit unsolved.
