Juliana Redding was a beautiful young aspiring actress who was found murdered in her Santa Monica apartment in March of 2008. Her case as not yet been solved.
According to CNN, Juliana Redding, whose first film credit was in the independent movie "Kathy T Gives Good Hoover," moved to LA from Tuscon in 2006. While pursuing her dream of Hollywood stardom, she took college course and worked part time in an upscale bar.
Police and the Los Angeles County Coroner's office have been tight-lipped about the circumstances surrounding Juliana Redding's murder. Initially, there were unconfirmed reports that Juliana Redding died as the result of blunt force trauma. The Los Angeles County Coroner's Office, however, has denied this. The coroner's office says that Juliana Redding did not die as the result of blunt force trauma, and notes that it cannot disclose the actual cause of death because police have sealed Juliana Redding's case file.
All this secrecy has led CNN to describe the slaying of Juliana Redding as a real life murder mystery. And for some, the murder mystery of Juliana Redding recalls that of another unsolved real life murder mystery in Los Angeles county. And that would be the case of Elizabeth Short, who was famously nicknamed the Black Dahlia by newspaper reporters covering the case.
Elizabeth Short's mutilated body was found lying in Leimert Park on January 15, 1947. Several books and movies have been made about the gruesome murder of the Black Dahlia, owing to the fact that the case inspired a tremendous amount of speculation. Rumors about the case were plentiful. These range from accusations that Short was a call girl to the debunked claim that she suffered from a genetic defect that left her without genitalia.
While the murder of Juliana Redding has not inspired the same degree of speculation and innuendo as that of the murder of Elizabeth Short, the mysterious circumstances surrounding Juliana Redding's death and the withholding of information about it by the police and coroner's office is disturbing.

"the debunked claim that she suffered from a genetic defect that left her without genitalia."
I have never seen a claim that she had no genitalia. I have seen a claim that they were mal or underformed, infantile, rendering her incapable of normal sex.
Detective Finis Brown said "the fact that the girl couldn't have sex if she tried it standing on her head with the good fairy of the North giving her all the blessing of the world.".
The claim has never been debunked because to do so you would have to have access to the Coroners autopsy protocol and report and they have never been released to the public.
.
Keep up the good work.
