Police Investigate Woman's Suspicious Death [Falls Church VA]
NBC4 ^ | 9/29/08

Posted on 09/29/2008 6:16:15 PM PDT by freespirited

A woman was found dead in her apartment in Falls Church Thursday morning, according to the Fairfax County Police Department.

Detectives are investigating 29-year-old Genevieve Orange's death as a homicide, police said. She appears to have died from blunt force trauma to the upper body.

Officers found Orange's body after they were sent to her building, the Prestwick in the 6100 block of Leesburg Pike, to make a welfare check.

Orange was a 2001 graduate of Virginia Tech. She was involved with the McLean Bible Church, according to a relative.

"All of us here at the Futures Industry Association were shocked and profoundly saddened at the news of Gini Orange's untimely death," said John Damgard, president of the FIA, the D.C. trade association where Orange worked. "She was a terrific employee and she was very well-liked by her colleagues here in the office and everyone she worked with on a daily basis. We all miss her very much."

Anyone with information about the case should contact Crime Solvers by phone at 866-411-TIPS/8477 or online at www.fairfaxcrimesolvers.org. Tipsters can also text "TIP187" and a message to CRIMES/274637 or call Fairfax County police at 703-691-2131.

I wonder what the City of Falls Church would have to pay, to get Fairfax County to STOP referring to Culmore as Falls Church.

Heck, it is ten miles from the city.

“I’m sorry rainbow land doesn’t get the picture does it?
Love your Unicorn.”

OK, that made tons of sense. Not. Guess you don’t want to answer my question directly.

“She lived where I grew up. How sad is that!”

I don’t know. I was merely commenting that she’s from here. Not sure why you needed to comment back.

You had better start with the Postal Service. Then, while you're at it, explain to them how Mount Vernon is not in the city of Alexandria.

Never mind, the US post thinks the Pentagon is in DC.

It is a lost cause, I give up.

It is sad to see someone young, with so much promise, from your community murdered violently. I do not question that.

I noted that it was also sad to see the neighborhood where you grew up turn into ..... this.

Is this somehow offensive to you?

Exactly...Why is it some people feel the need to denigrate a thread??...I found this an intresting read. People such as that poster must believe he lives in a more “important” world as ours...so what we find important or newsworthy is apparently a waste of his time. What I can never figure is why people like him, although article is BS to him...they have to comment. Maybe Mommy didnt pay enough attention to him when he was young, so he hes grasping for ours.

One is always dismayed at violent death for someone young, but I gather then that this one hit close to your home.

Not sure what you mean by MS-13.

My post wasn’t addressed to you.

As a long time FReeper I will never be intimidated from asking a question on any thread.

If that ruins life for you, then you need to reevaluate your concept of free speech and free discussion.
