Tracey Kirkpatrick was a quiet teenager who lived in the small town of Frederick, Maryland. On the night of March 15th, 1989, Tracey was scheduled to close the store she worked at, Aileen Ladies Sportswear. Around 10:30 PM, a security guard, noticed the lights in the store were on and Tracey's lifeless body was discovered. The case was confusing and police couldn't find a motive. Three months after the murder, a guy named Don called a nationwide confession hot line and confessed to the murder. Another tip came in about a guy named Sean that may be involved. The main theory seems to point at the security guard that discovered Tracey, Don Barnes Jr. His father was a former sheriff. This case remains unsolved, but someone knows something.
