Can you help solve Carlene Ward’s murder?

Posted on 06/09/2020

It was about 11.30pm on Sunday 6 September 1992 when Carlene Ward’s body was discovered in the main bedroom of her house in Armstrong Avenue, Parafield Gardens.

The 35-year old was found by her 16-year-old son who also resided there.

She had been bashed and stabbed, with several weapons used during the murder.

Today it remains one of South Australia’s most baffling murders, with her killer still free in the community.

A reward of up to $200,000 is on offer to anyone who provides information leading to a conviction in the case.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or at www.crimestopperssa.com.au
