Info

After 51 years, investigators, family and friends have not given up in the search to find who brutally murdered 15-year-old marilee burt.Marilee was last seen alive walking home in her cheerleading uniform after a basketball game at goddard junior high school in littleton, colorado on february 26, 1970. Several independent witnesses reported seeing marilee walking a route that included berry drive, bowles avenue and middlefield road, but she never made it home. The day after she disappeared, a jefferson county road crew found marilee’s naked body in deer creek canyon, several miles away from where she was last seen, and contacted law enforcement. She had been sexually assulted and strangled to death. The arapahoe county sheriff’s office collected evidence and interviewed witnesses. Years after her death, investigators were able to create a dna profile using evidence that was collected at the scene. The dna found hasn’t yet yielded a match for the killer in local or federal databases, however investigators remain hopeful that whoever responsible for this horrendous crime will be brought to justice.
