Murder of Debra Horn


On Jan. 29, 1969 11-year-old Debra Horn stayed home from school because she was complaining of a bump on her head. She had gotten it when she fell on the ice. When her parents returned home for lunch they found her gone. They reported her missing to the Allenstown, New Hampshire police.  

There were searches for the young girl performed in the area. But it was proved to be fruitless. There was human blood found on a road near her home. It's unknown if the blood had anything to do with Debra. I didn't find any recent articles mentioning it. 

On August 10, 1969, a few boys from Massachusetts decided to check out an abandoned car in Sandown. The car had been abandoned for four years by this time. They lifted the truck and found Debra's badly decomposed body. 

Her body was too decomposed to know the cause of death or if she had been sexually assaulted. She had a head wound to the back of her head. It couldn't be determined if the injury was caused by her fall on the ice or not.

 There were no clothes found on her remains and none were found in the area. Her earing and ring were found in the trunk. She was wearing a light gold jumper, white turtle neck, and gold knee length socks.
