On the morning of December 28, 1995, 24-year-old Gina Cyphers was found murdered in her Salina, Kansas home at 721 West Cloud #54. She had dropped her 15-month-old son at a church daycare around 9:00 a.m. and was expected to return at 11:30 a.m.; when she did not, staff contacted her live-in boyfriend, Jimmie Anderson. Anderson discovered her body and called police; first responders arrived about 12:12 p.m. and determined the death to be a homicide.

Investigators report Gina had been stabbed, strangled, and there were indications she may have been sexually assaulted. The Salina Police Department and the Kansas Bureau of Investigation worked the case but no arrests have ever been announced and no specific suspects have been publicly named. A Governor’s Reward of $5,000 is offered for information leading to an arrest and conviction, and her photo was later included on cold case playing cards in Kansas correctional facilities.

If anyone knew Gina, was in the 700 block of West Cloud on December 28, 1995, or has information that could help solve this case, please come forward.
