Edna Marie Posey was a woman murdered in 1984. A man was convicted of her murder, but was later exonerated through DNA analysis, which indicated she had been killed by more than one person. Police declined to pursue further leads into the case, however.

Case[]

Posey's torso was discovered on a hillside, hidden in a box. She had most likely been sexually assaulted by several men prior to her death.

A man was arrested for her murder after her remains were identified ten months after their discovery. DNA testing led to that specific conviction to be overturned.

The rest of Edna's body has never been found.
