About this episode

Our card this week is Deborah Perry, the 3 of Spades from South Carolina. 

Three decades have passed since 29-year-old Deborah Perry was found shot to death on a rural cul-de-sac outside Columbia, South Carolina, and her killer has never been caught. As cold case investigators follow new leads, Deborah’s daughter wonders if a pair of flowered pants and men’s underwear her mother was found holding could be the key to cracking the case.

  • If you have information about the 1994 murder of Deborah Perry please contact Crimestoppers at 1-888-CRIME-SC.
