The cold case of 15-year-old Silene Eaddy

Silene Eaddy was just 15 years old at the time of her death in 2004. Eaddy, also known as Erica, lived in Columbia, South Carolina. Eaddy’s body was found in the early morning hours of April 17, 2004, after the Columbia-Richland Fire Department responded to a call for a brush fire near the intersection of Pincushion and Montgomery Roads.

To date, no arrests have been made in the case, and it remains cold.

Someone knows what happened to Silene Eaddy and how she ended up deceased; maybe that person is you.
