On the 18th of April 1987, Easter Weekend, 26-year-old Shani Warren’s body was found face down in Taplow Lake in England. Her wrists were tied with a car jump lead, and her ankles were tied by a tow rope. Her car was found abandoned nearby, with her personal items everywhere.Outrageously, a theory was suggested by a forensic pathologist that Shani had done this to herself, based on the looseness of the ties on her hands and that no other footprints were found alongside her stiletto heelprints at the scene.With the first 48 hours critical in her murder investigation now lost, a murder investigation was finally launched 4 days later after her body was found, when a postmortem examination found she had died by drowning, with the press quickly dubbing Shani as the Lady of The Lake.Despite the case gaining a lot of publicity, due to the lack of evidence and not enough advancement in DNA testing, police were unable to charge anyone with her murder. And so, 34 years passed and the case went cold until it was finally solved in 2021...
