Two years after their daughter was found dead in her Michigan home, the family of 31-year-old Megan Drumhiller is hoping to bring a new awareness to the unsolved case.

“We were always careful not to disrupt the investigation,” Megan’s father, Tim Drumhiller, said. “But we finally got to the point where we — we’ve gotta create awareness. Maybe somebody saw something, heard something, whatever else that they’re reluctant to say.”

The Drumhillers, who winter in Florida, have offered a $100,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction, and Tim Drumhiller told NBC’s Dateline that there has been movement on the case.

“I can’t be specific, but there are other new leads that they’ve developed,” he said. “They uncovered some pretty key information.”

Lieutenant Russell Kolb of the Saginaw County Sheriff’s Office told Dateline a “person of interest” has been identified through electronic search warrants, although that person has not been publicly identified.

Additionally, he said, ““a CODIS hit was made to one of the DNA samples which matched another sample which was submitted from another agency in Michigan. Investigation into this CODIS hit continues.”

The Saginaw County Sheriff’s Office was not always the lead agency in the case. When Megan’s body was found in her home on January 28, 2022, the Carrollton Township Police and Michigan State Police handled the investigation. But after months went by with little movement, the Drumhillers requested that the county agency take over. State police did as the family asked.

Megan’s mother, Lynette Drumhiller, was on a visit to Michigan when her daughter’s body was found. She was supposed to meet her but hadn’t been able to contact her in the days leading up to her arrival — or January 28. She texted Megan’s on-again, off-again boyfriend, who said he hadn’t spoken with her either. He offered to go check on her.

“He calls back and he says he can see her through the door — through the window — and she’s lying on the floor unconscious,” she said. “I say, ‘Did you call 911?’ and he said, ‘Yes.’”

Lynette Drumhiller said she rushed to her daughter’s home, only to be met by crime scene tape and police officers.

“An officer says to me that from everything he can see — he said, ‘This is a homicide,’” she told Dateline. “I did not want to hear it. I was in such denial, because who would kill Megan?”

The cause of death was determined to be asphyxiation.

Anyone with information about the case is asked to call the Saginaw County Sheriff’s Office at 989-790-5448.
