Ontario Provincial Police hope a new appeal to the public will help reinvigorate an investigation into a four-decade-old homicide.
Karen Caughlin, 14, of Sarnia was dropped off early on March 16, 1974, in front of a friend's house on Brock Street South in the city.
Investigators say Caughlin never entered the home, and a farmer discovered her battered body later that morning in a shallow ditch by a gravel sideroad northwest of Petrolia.
Police have said the autopsy revealed that Caughlin's injuries were consistent with having been struck by a vehicle. However, circumstances such as her purse being located several days later in a ditch north of Petrolia, led investigators to rule her death a homicide.
Even a $50,000 reward for information leading to the conviction of her killer hasn't led police to an arrest in the case.
Karen Caughlin's sister, Kathy, is unhappy with the way police have dealt with the case.
She claims they haven't followed up on some tips.
Two years ago, she organized a protest outside the OPP office in Petrolia, demanding an independent review.
OPP say they plan to release a case chronology video at 11 a.m. ET today and launch a public appeal to anyone with information in the case.
