Cold Case Spotlight

Theresa Corley, 19, left a bar in early December 1978, after an argument with her boyfriend, in Franklin, Massachusetts. While attempting to walk home, Theresa was approached by a group of men and ended up at a party in the Presidential Arms Apartments. It has been reported that Theresa was likely sexually assaulted by the group but was able to get out of the apartment and continue towards her home. Reports indicate that Theresa was last seen within a mile of her house. However, the next morning Theresa’s mom realized she had never made it home. A couple days later, Theresa’s nude body was found on the northbound side of Route 495 in Bellingham, Massachusetts. Her jacket and a pair of jeans were found near her. The discovery of Theresa’s body was made after a man, identifying himself as John Burlington, called Bellingham police, explaining to them that he saw a body when he pulled off the road to use the bathroom. State police now say that Burlington never existed. After almost 39 years there is renewed hope that Theresa’s family may soon get answers. In May, Theresa’s body was exhumed and a State Police chemist collected nine and a half fingernails to analyzed for DNA in hopes of identifying the person(s) responsible for her murder. Theresa’s sister has fought tirelessly to keep her sister’s memory alive and make sure no one forgets Theresa Corley. The Facebook page Justice for Theresa Corley Belllingham MA 1978 was created to keep pressure on those investigating the case and those involved. Friends, family and supporters of Theresa refuse to give up or let Theresa be forgotten.

Incident Location 110 block of Hillock Crescent
Virginia Beach, Virginia, 23455
L.E.A Virginia Beach Police Department, Virginia Beach, Virginia
On Tuesday, August 14, 1990, three armed black males forced their way into David Lamb’s townhome located in the 1100 block of Hillock Crescent. At 2:30 am, Police were summoned to the Lamb residence after a report of gunfire. The 20 year old victim was found inside his residence suffering from a gunshot to the head. He was taken to Sentara Norfolk General Hospital where he died from his injury. His body was taken to the State Medical Examiner’s Officer for autopsy. The manner of death was ruled a homicide. Investigators interviewed numerous witnesses and neighbors who advised Lamb had lived at the townhome less than a year. During that time, the atmosphere surrounding this home was annoying, with people coming and going at all hours of the day and night, loud music and fast cars driven to and from the Lamb residence. Investigators are looking for a black male who appeared to be about 20 years old with a light complexion. He stood about 5’ 6’’ tall weighing around 140 pounds. He had a thin moustache with freckles. At the time of the shooting he wore a white baseball cap with a white shirt. The other two men were also black, but no other description is available. David was a 20 year old black male who had brown eyes and short black hair, a slight beard and moustache. He was 6’ 0’’ tall weighing 190 pounds.
