About this episode
On the afternoon of September 11, 1997, Charlotte Fimiano, a 40-year-old realtor and beloved mother and wife, went to meet with a potential home buyer at a secluded residence in Lower Saucon Township, Pennsylvania. When she didn’t return home that night, her husband reported her missing. The next morning, she was found brutally murdered in the home she was supposed to show. It’s been more than 26 years since Charlotte was killed, and investigators are still searching for the person responsible…

On the afternoon of September 11, 1997, Charlotte Fimiano was murdered in a vacant house for sale in the 2100 block of Chelsea Lane in Lower Saucon Township, Pennsylvania. She was shot twice with a small caliber gun and strangled with a spiral cord. She wasn’t discovered until the following morning. 

If you have any information in this case, please call Pennsylvania Crime Stoppers at 1-800-472-8477. You may be eligible for a reward.
