Carrie Lee Mock


Stamford resident Carrie Lee Mock, shown here in an undated photo, was found murdered in Greenwich on July 19, 1981. Greenwich Police are once again looking at the cold case.
Carrie "Kat" Mock was described by everyone who knew her as a sweet person and a dedicated mother. So it was concerning when on the morning of July 19, 1981, Carrie didn't answer her phone. Her family and friends, concerned that multiple calls were going unanswered contacted the Stamford Police to help find her. 

Carrie Mock had last been seen by one of her sisters, Mary McClain, the night before. They had gone to a Westside club ( I haven't been able to find the name of the club... yet) on Richmond Hill in Stamford. Both had left before midnight. Mary McClain was the last known person to see her sister alive.

Shortly before 6 PM on the 19th, the family's worst fears were realized. Three young boys found Carrie Mock's partially clothed body. She was found on the grounds near the Brunswick School in Greenwich. An autopsy determined she had died from strangulation with stab wounds in her neck. The clothes found with her were not what she had been wearing when she had parted from her sister. However, the autopsy showed no signs of sexual assault.

No one has been identified as a suspect or charged in this case. 

If anyone who has information on the murder of Carrie Lee Mock is asked to contact the Greenwich Police Department tip line:

Ashley Ouellette  On the night of February 9, 1999, fifteen-year-old Ashley Ouellette was sleeping over at a friend's house. She called to wish her mother, Lise Ouellette, a good night around 10 P.M. Lise Ouellette never heard from her daughter again. Later that night a few boys from school dropped by the sleepover. The group decided to stop by the Sanborn home, but when the others left, Ashley stayed behind. She had a crush on one of the two Sanborn brothers (Steven). Ashley planned to spend the night on the couch at the Sanborn home, but something happened to her between her friends leaving and 4 A.M. when a motorist finds her with a broken neck from strangulation nearly ten miles away from the Sanborn's house. According to the Sanborn's Ashley left sometime after everyone went to bed, and they don't know what happened to her. Police have questioned both of the Sanborn boys, Steven and Danny, as well as their parents. Danny's story changed several ti...

Sunday Pictures ~ The Borden's of Fall River (Late 😓)

The spot in the guest bedroom where Abby Borden's body was found. The murder of Andrew and Abby Borden on August 4, 1892, is one of the first crimes I was aware of as a child (Yes, I totally jumped rope to the Lizzie Borden rhyme!). I have also been called Lizzie on multiple occasions by family members for my less than meek attitude. So this case is really close to my heart. I have stayed overnight at the Borden B&B in Fall River twice. The first time in this room, the Morse Room, where Abby Borden was murdered. The second time I stayed in the master bedroom. I totally recommend spending at least one night in the place (The staff is awesome and there is a lot to see! Plus just spending time in the atmosphere is really cool!) There is also a new B&B opening up in Maplecroft (The home of Lizzie and Emma, for a time, after the murders) which I am anxious to go to soon!
