Thirty Years Later, Janet’s Case Still Unsolved

A young university student, Janet Murgatroyd, was brutally murdered 30 years ago on her way home from a night out in Preston. Found dead in the River Ribble at just 20, she was last seen walking alone toward Penwortham Bridge — a chilling mystery that’s haunted her family ever since. Her mother, still grieving, and Lancashire Police are making a desperate, renewed appeal for anyone who saw or heard anything that night. With modern DNA tech offering new hope, they’re urging witnesses — no matter how small their role — to come forward. A £20,000 reward is on the table for information leading to an arrest. If you were near Fishergate Hill or Penwortham Bridge on June 15–16, 1996, and haven’t spoken to police — now’s your chance to help bring justice.
