Nearly three months have passed and no arrests made since an Ypsilanti Township woman was found dead in her residence at Lake Shore Apartments.

The Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department announced last Wednesday a $10,000 reward would be given to anyone with information leading to the arrest and conviction of the person(s) involved with the homicide of Lindsay Graygo.
Cmdr. Dave Egeler said reward stems from the "frustration" of not having anyone in custody.
"We're hoping someone will come forward and give a little bit of information to help us lock up suspect," Egeler said.
Graygo, 29, was found dead Feb. 19 in her bathtub, partially clothed, with some water in the tub. Deputies have suspected Graygo was beaten and sexually assaulted before the assailant strangled her to death.
There was no sign of forced entry to her apartment, leaving deputies to believe that she may have been familiar with the attacker.
Egeler said trace evidence was obtained at the scene but the department has not gotten any results from the Michigan State Crime Lab. Egeler would not go into detail regarding the evidence recovered.
"At this point we're not releasing what we do or don't have," he said.
Graygo was last heard from Feb. 18 when she had a phone conversation with her mother around 11 a.m.
Graygo's purse is missing from the apartment. It is described as a Via Spiga handbag with shoulder straps, burgundy and black in color with snakeskin trim.
Anyone with information can call the Washtenaw Sheriff's Confidential Tipline at 1-734-973-7711.
