Cincinnati police have identified a 35-year-old woman found dead Monday in a Camp Washington apartment.
Marilyn Randolph was found just before 9:45 a.m. with a pillow over her head and her face badly beaten, according to a 911 tape. The man who called police said he'd just come home from his third-shift job and found Ms. Randolph, his girlfriend, in the second-floor apartment in the 2900 block of Colerain Avenue.
Cincinnati's homicide unit is investigating and is seeking any information about the death or anyone who may have seen Ms. Randolph on Sunday evening before she died.
“Any kind of information, even if it's small, would be helpful,” said homicide Lt. Michael R. Jones.
If Ms. Randolph's death is ruled a homicide, it would be Cincinnati's second of 2000.
Police also are seeking information in two other recent Cincinnati homicides:
• Anthony Davis, 29, of Over-the-Rhine, was shot and killed early New Year's Day. He was found dead just before 5 a.m. across the street from his home in the 0-100 block of Findlay Street.
• Mabel Malcolm Washington, 35, of the West End, was stocking shelves at Cornell's Grocery Store, 516 W. Liberty St., about 9 p.m. on Christmas Eve when she was shot and killed by a masked gunman during a robbery.
The gunman police are looking for in that case is described as black, 5 feet 5 to 5 feet 7 inches tall, and weighing about 130 pounds. He was wearing a black ski-type mask and black clothing.
Lt. Jones said investigators are following leads on all three cases.
Anyone with information on these cases is asked to call the Cincinnati Police Division's homicide unit at 352-3542 or Crime Stoppers at 352-3040.
