Update: Garland County Still Pursuing Justice in Dawna Natzke Case
By: KARK 4 News
Updated: December 13, 2012
The December 2011 murder of Hot Springs Village dispatcher Dawna Natzke is still an active, ongoing investigation being conducted by the Garland County Sheriff's Office (GCSO) and Arkansas State Police.
The GCSO said today that investigators have followed numerous leads, but have unfortunately exhausted most of them.
The facts and evidence garnered through the investigation reveal at this time that there are no other persons of interest, other than the last known person to see her alive.
Since February 2012, investigators have been in contact with special agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). Investigators have received assistance from the FBI in analyzing evidence, specifically electronic data, obtained during the course of the investigation. This effort by the FBI is ongoing and investigators are awaiting additional analysis to complete the technical portion of the investigation.
Once this information is received and reviewed, investigators will again meet with the prosecuting attorney to discuss the facts of the case and determine the next course of action.
A reward, in the amount of $11,000 total, is being offered for any information that would assist in the arrest and prosecution of the person or persons responsible for this murder.
Anyone with information may contact Garland County Inv. Mike Wright or AR State Police Special Agent Dennis Morris at (501) 622-3690, or the department's anonymous tip line at (501) 622-3674.
