88: MURDER: Amber Berbiglia

On May 3rd, 2013, 23-year-old Amber Berbiglia never showed up for work. She was always on time, so her coworkers immediately knew something was wrong. They texted and called but received no reply. Around the same time Amber’s coworkers were trying to reach her, two separate 911 calls came in. The first was from a caller who reported an abandoned vehicle. The second came from a group of kids who said they had seen a body near the same car. When detectives arrived, they found Amber dead. She had suffered severe trauma to her head, and at first, it was assumed she had been shot. But the autopsy told a different story—she had been beaten, and her arms showed signs that she had fought back. Now, more than a decade later, the person who did this to Amber still hasn’t been caught—and her family and friends are still fighting for answers. 23-year-old Amber Berbiglia left her apartment on Golf Colony Lane in Little River, South Carolina, to run errands in the Myrtle Beach area. She first went to get a haircut in North Myrtle Beach before heading to Ross Dress for Less on Kings Road. After returning items, she was then spotted at the Murphy’s Gas Station on Kings Road at 2:00 p.m., before paying her cable bill roughly ten minutes later on Main Street, also known as Ocean Drive, in North Myrtle Beach. She was supposed to arrive at her job—Greg Norman’s Australian Grill—by 4:00 p.m., but she never made it. Instead, two 911 calls came in reporting her car abandoned on Old Sanders Road under Robert Edge Parkway. Amber’s body was discovered beaten, just feet from her car. Her cause of death was blunt force trauma with two skull fractures. There were no signs of robbery—her phone was within inches of her fingers, and her purse and cash were inside the car, untouched. Anyone with information is asked to call the Horry County Police Department at 843-915-8477.
