Yavapai County Sheriff’s Office Still Trying To Solve 20-Year-Old Cold Case Homicide In Prescott

Yavapai County authorities are still trying to solve a 20-year-old murder case. On September 19th, 2002, 60-year-old Arleen Cilione was celebrating her birthday and stopped at the American Legion Hall in Prescott and then went to Donna’s Hut, which was located off West Goodwin Street. She left with an unknown man and she wasn’t seen again. Four months later, her body was found just off White Spar Road south of Prescott. Evidence showed Cilione was murdered. The night she disappeared, witnesses saw two taxi cabs parked in the Park Plaza parking lot at around 9 p.m. One of the drivers has been identified. The other has not. Cilione was a white female, about five-foot-two inches tall and 110 pounds. Yavapai Silent Witness is offering a cash reward for information leading to an arrest in this case.
