On July 13, 1989, 16-year-old Lisa McDuffie was found murdered inside her father’s home in Pearson, Georgia. She had suffered severe blunt force trauma. Her life was cut short in a horrifying and violent way, and over three decades later, her case remains unsolved.

Lisa was visiting her father, Joe, and her brother, Joseph, in Pearson. Her home base was with her mother and sisterin Rincon, Georgia. What should have been a routine family visit turned into a devastating tragedy.

No arrest. No answers. No peace.

Her story, though long overshadowed by time, continues to resonate with those who hear it. It is crucial that we not only acknowledge her plight but also actively seek justice in her name.
