ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY: STATE POLICE CONTINUE TO SEARCH FOR SUSPECT IN CALVERT COUNTY HOMICIDE

(Lusby, MD) – One year ago, a 41-year old woman, found dead inside her car in a parking lot of a state park, prompted a homicide investigation in Calvert County and police continue to search for clues.

On the one year anniversary of Sandra Renee Long’s death, state police handed out fliers and spoke with hunters who frequent the Calvert Cliffs State Park, where Long was found. Investigators continue their search for new leads and any matches to the evidence collected from the crime scene that day.

On November 30, 2011, at approximately 2:45 p.m., an emergency phone call was received by the Calvert Control Center. The call came from a group of three hunters who discovered Long, apparently unconscious and unresponsive in the front seat of her parked car, a silver 2009 Ford Focus with Maryland tags. The car was parked in a lot bordering Calvert Cliffs State Park, at the intersection of Camp Canoy Road and H.G. Trueman Road in Lusby.

Long, of the 11,000 block of H.G. Trueman Road in Lusby, was pronounced dead at the scene by EMS personnel and taken to the Office of the State Medical Examiner for an autopsy. Results revealed the cause and manner of death was homicide due to blunt force trauma. A motive has not been determined.

Investigators from the Calvert County Investigative Team, the Maryland State Police Homicide Unit and the Calvert County State’s Attorney’s Office immediately initiated a death investigation. State police crime scene technicians processed the scene for evidence.

Police are asking anyone who may have seen Long on the morning of Monday, November 29 or Tuesday, November 30, 2010, or who may have information regarding this case, to please call the Maryland State Police at the Prince Frederick Barrack at 410-535-1400.

The investigation continues…
