Between the hours of 9 and 10 a.m. on September 6, 1957 a deliveryman discovered the body of Mrs. Thomas in the bathroom of the business in which she worked. Mrs. Thomas was the lone employee at work and evidence suggests a customer had been in the business just prior to her death. Mrs. Thomas was apparently dragged from the front area of the business to the bathroom where she was stabbed multiple times resulting in her death. Evidence obtained on scene and during the subsequent investigation focused on a particular suspect. This individual remains the primary suspect and is currently living in another state. Anyone having information on this case is encouraged to contact the Major Case Assessment Team at (850) 891-4462 or (850) 891-4745.
