The Texas Department of Public Safety and the Texas Ranger Unsolved Crimes Investigation Team are asking for the public’s help in solving the 1982 murder of Monica “Christie” Wilson in Liberty, Texas.
As part of a public awareness program launched in October, DPS is featuring one unsolved case each month in an effort to generate new investigative leads and bring added attention to unresolved or “cold cases” across the state.

At midnight on Aug. 26, 1982, Wilson left the convenience store, which was known as “Snappy’s” at the time, in Liberty where she worked as a clerk. The next day, her body was found by a passing motorist in a secluded area of Liberty County, which includes the town of Liberty.
Wilson’s 1969 Pontiac Lemans convertible, which was orange with a black soft top, was later found abandoned in Liberty. At the time of her death, Wilson was 19 years old and recently married.
Montgomery County Crime Stoppers is offering a reward for information leading to the arrest of the person or persons responsible for the death of Wilson.
Montgomery County said to be eligible for the cash reward, the tip must be submitted by calling 1-800-392-7867 or visiting the Montgomery County Crime Stoppers website.
Anyone with information can also submit a tip through the Texas Rangers’ cold case website or contact the Missing Persons Clearinghouse at 1-800-346-3243.
Since there is no statute of limitations for a murder offense, investigators said they pursue these cases to a successful resolution, or until no other lead is viable.
