Detectives are reopening the cold case of Donna Keogh, who vanished aged 17 almost 30 years ago. The teen disappeared in Leeds, and police are now revisiting key clues, especially around the Chapeltown area, in a fresh bid to solve the mystery.
Donna’s Last Movements Under the Spotlight
Donna, from Middlesbrough, was last seen in the town centre on 28 April 1998. Despite extensive searches, her body has never been discovered. Officers believe she was murdered soon after she vanished. It is now confirmed that Donna was being exploited at the time of her disappearance.
Police Plea for Information
Senior Investigating Officer Detective Chief Inspector Steven Chatterton said:
“Our investigation has taken us back to Leeds, particularly Chapeltown. We are revisiting a number of important lines of enquiry.”
“We’re urging anyone who saw Donna, spoke to her, or knows anything about her movements in Leeds in 1998 to come forward. Even the smallest detail could hold the key.”
“Donna’s family have lived with unbearable uncertainty for nearly 30 years. We remain close to them and are determined to find out what happened for their sake.”
“Donna’s father, Brian, sadly passed away without ever knowing the truth. Somebody out there knows what happened. Please get in touch, you can contact us directly or report anonymously.”
Reward Still on the Table
A £20,000 reward from Crimestoppers remains for any information leading to a breakthrough. Anyone with details is urged to call police on 101 or report anonymously to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111.
