Merseyside Police have issued a renewed call for public assistance in solving the cold case murder of Julie Finley, who was 23 years old at the time of her death. Finley was last seen alive in Liverpool city centre on August 5, 1994. Her body was discovered the following day in a carrot field in Rainford, St Helens. Despite an extensive investigation spanning 32 years, no individual has been convicted of her murder.

Investigators are specifically seeking information from anyone who may have been in the vicinity of the field or the city centre on the night of her disappearance. The police have stated that even minor details, which may have seemed insignificant at the time, could now prove vital due to advancements in forensic technology and changes in personal circumstances for potential witnesses. The case has been subject to multiple reviews over the decades, but the perpetrator remains unidentified.

While the investigation remains active, the lack of a breakthrough has left the case as one of the region's most enduring mysteries. Police are urging anyone with information, regardless of how long ago it occurred, to come forward to help provide closure for the victim's family. There is currently no new physical evidence being publicly discussed, but the appeal highlights the ongoing commitment of the cold case unit to revisit historical files.
