Description
On April 15, 1973, Virginia "Ginger" Olson left her dorm room on the campus of UNC-Asheville for an afternoon of studying at the nearby botanical gardens. A few hours later, two teenagers walking through the woods came across a horrifying crime scene. Who murdered the 19-year-old in broad daylight on that spring morning? We discuss this open and active case, the list of suspects questioned at the time, the history of the nearby psychiatric hospital where the primary suspect may have been a patient, and the affect this unsolved murder has had on the campus and city.
