Police are continuing to investigate a 20-year-old homicide case in Halifax.

Investigators say Kimber Leanne Lucas was murdered on Nov. 21, 1994. Her body was found behind 5783 North Street two days later.

Police determined Lucas was in the area of North and Maitland streets between 1:30 a.m. and 3:30 a.m. the day of her death. 

She was seven months pregnant at the time.

Police say, despite advancements in technology, investigations are made difficult without reliable, cooperative witnesses. They say a code of silence among witnesses can prolong unsolved crimes.   

Lucas’ case has been added to the Nova Scotia Rewards for Major Unsolved Crimes program. The program offers a cash reward of up to $150,000 for information that leads to an arrest and conviction in certain cases.

Anyone with information on Lucas’ murder is asked to contact police or CrimeStoppers.
