when we were younger there was always a box in my grandparents basement and had Janet written on the side and we were
00:00:11
always told do not touch it Janna was a very very happy person and Janet seemingly had everything to
00:00:20
look forward to in life Janet was very well lake she had a lot of friends she was both on the
00:00:26
musical and the geeky side so to speak my name is Francesco celeri and I am Janet Walsh's brother they were really
00:00:35
close really close because I've heard my entire life uh about my Aunt Janet and everything that happened she's just a
00:00:43
kid she's just a 23-year-old she had been out the night before with a couple of girlfriends we found out that she didn't
00:00:50
show up for work that morning I'm Andy Gul and in 1979 I was the first police officer
00:01:00
at the Janet Walsh homicide [Music] scene I drove up to the front of the house and ran up to the door and Pete
00:01:12
celor Janet's father told me that she was in the back bedroom I walk in and I pull the sheet
00:01:20
back slightly there was no need to even check for a pulse because you could tell
00:01:25
by the her face and the scarf around her neck that she was dead the word dead just didn't apply she's she's my sister
00:01:35
there's nothing that could make my sister be dead I had to go in and see for myself but
00:01:43
my my brother would not allow me to he put me in a bear hug and he would not let
00:01:50
go he did not want that to be the last family I had of my sister I have a plot from an old TV show
00:02:01
like Murder She Wrote where we have five suspects and I can't put a finger on any
00:02:07
of them in the late 2000s the Pennsylvania State Police Cold Case unit began to relook at the
00:02:17
investigation this was everything collected by the Pennsylvania State Police at the time of the crime in
00:02:23
1979 assistant district attorney Britney Smith was assigned to prosecute it and this has been preserved by the state
00:02:30
police since that time in a way this is a a time capsule we're going back to the
00:02:36
late 1970s we're going to the death scene now the cord from her own bathro was used to to bind her wrist
00:02:46
right she more than likely let her killer in and it was someone known to her at that time this was almost the
00:02:52
perfect murder it was for 34 years
