The Lake House Murder
It’s been 41 years since Gina Renee Hall was killed, but her ‘unrepentant’ murderer still won’t confirm the whereabouts of her remains.
It was June 1980, and 18-year-old Gina Renee Hall was in the mood for celebrating. She had just finished her mid-terms and was keen to let her hair down in her home town to mark the start of what should have been a great summer.
However, a Saturday evening of fun turned into what must have been a desperate fight for her life — and it led to an ongoing quest by her devoted sister to find out what really happened to Gina that night.
From club to lake house
Gina Hall and her sister Dlana were living together in the Virginia town of Radford in 1980, with Gina a freshman at nearby Radford University. The two siblings were particularly close, and they had made arrangements to go out dancing on the evening of June 28th.
However, as Dlana told producers of Discovery Investigation’s Evil Lives Here, she and her boyfriend had had a falling-out that day and she couldn’t face the frivolity of the crowded bar and club. Instead, she encouraged Gina to go meet up with their friends and mark the end of the summer exam season without her.
