About This Episode
What is this episode about?
The episode "MURDERED: Nori Amaya" from Crime Junkie covers the unsolved killing of Nori Amaya, a 38-year-old D.C. restaurateur and salsa queen who was strangled in her own bed two days after going out dancing On Halloween night in 2009. She came home alone that night, and it would be two days before she was found dead. Investigators have DNA evidence and hours of surveillance footage from the building, but have never been able to identify her killer, in part because the footage shows a building full of people wearing Halloween masks. Sixteen years later, the case remains open, and the episode explores the possibility that the key to solving it lies in a secret someone close to Nori is still keeping, or in something that went missing from her apartment the night she was killed.
