$1K reward offered for tips on teen's killer

HALL COUNTY, Ga. — A $1,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the attacker who stabbed a Hall County teen to death.

The Hall County Sheriff's Office and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation announced Wednesday that Gov. Nathan Deal signed an executive order authorizing the reward. Authorities have been searching for Hannah Truelove's killer since her death in August.

The 16-year-old's body was found in a wooded area behind the Lake Lanier Club Apartments where she lived with her mother. She had been stabbed multiple times, according to the Sheriff's Office.

Authorities have not identified any suspects but have released a description of a car believed to be linked to the case. Investigators are looking for a late 1990s to early 2000s four-door passenger car, possibly a Dodge or Chevrolet. The car is light silver, but has a lighter-colored driver's door and has substantial front end damage, deputies said.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Hall County tip line at 770‐503‐3232, or the GBI tip line at 800‐597‐8477. Tips may also be submitted online here.
