Elizabeth Short, described by police as a white female, aged 22, five foot six 118 pounds, light brown hair that was dyed black, green eyes, and bad teeth was murdered on January 15th, 1947. Her body was found in a vacant lot by a mother walking with her child. The body was displayed in such a way that the mother believed it was a mannequin at first glance. Upon arrival police were met with a plethora of reporters who had seemingly beaten them to the seen. Not much is known about what had happened the night of Short’s murder, and theories range from a date gone bad, to running into a stranger with malicious intentions while walking alone at night. Regardless of what the theory is, this case has been a running mystery for 75 years. Over 60 known confessions, and over 1000 different police interrogations, but still no proof definitive evidence linking anyone to the crime. So today we aim to answer the 75 year old question, who killed Elizabeth Short?
