The Savage & Forgotten Murder of Ora Lee Prescott

The Savage & Forgotten Murder of Ora Lee Prescott

Fort Worth, Texas in the 1970s was a stomping ground for killers. In February of that year, 25-year-old June Ward was brutally murdered and thrown on the side of West Fuller. While June’s case hardly got the press and investigative effort she deserved, a slaying that occurred in the summer got much less. On June 4th, 1977, workers cleaning up at Sycamore Park south of downtown found the body of 31-year-old Ora Lee Prescott. After quickly identifying who they thought her killer was and then failing to produce sufficient evidence to charge him, the Fort Worth Police simply gave up, leaving her casefile to collect dust, by all indications, for 45 years now. Tragically, Ora Lee’s daughter, too, was slain by a serial rapist and two-time convicted murderer almost 20 years after her mother.
