Deery Pa. also known by the joke derry area if you say it wrong has a long history of being a quiet but big railroad town in Westmoreland County situated between US 22 and US 30
not much goes on here except for a major pedestrian accident involving the railroad as people try to illegally cross tracks in town instead of using the approved crossing and end up getting hit.
I have been thru the town several times as a short cut from Fayette County to Altoona
So it was quite the shock in this town when a murder was committed on a young woman 22 year old Samantha Lang on March 27 of 2007 in her Derry Twp home.
Its hard to believe no one heard or saw anything in this little town where everyone knows your business not even a $50,000.00 dollar reward has brought forth any leads .
So it makes you wonder was this some one local or is it a serial killer the case looks and sounds all to familiar to a case in West Deer Twp ,Bethel Park and Arnold all 4 women alone at home and viciously attacked and not one drop of evidence over many years.
The police have no clues and psychic family contacted is no better.
