Authorities are asking the public’s help in tracking down the person responsible for the deaths of two Glendale women whose decomposing bodies were found near Cordes Junction nearly 15 years ago.

The two women, 19-year-old Jennifer Lueth and 20-year-old Diana
Shawcroft, were last seen leaving a mini-mart near the intersection of 59th Avenue
and Camelback Road on May 27, 1996.

The women were last seen by a clerk at the mini-mart as they were
getting into a faded blue truck driven by a man described by the clerk
as white, and in his 30. He had blond
shoulder-length hair, a mustache, and was wearing a blue
jean jacket, the clerk later told police.

Three months after getting into the truck, the bodies of Lueth and
Shawcroft were found north of Cordes Junction, more than 100 miles from
their homes.

The girls’ families have partnered with Silent Witness to remind the
public that a killer may still be on the loose, and to hopefully find
out who killed their loved ones.

There is now a $1,000 reward for information about the girls’ death.
Anyone with information is asked to call Silent Witness at 480-WITNESS
