The Unsolved Murders of Joe and Toby Magaskie

July 22, 2024

Watch Video Case File

On July 22, 1983, at approximately 12:45 p.m., Baltimore County detectives responded to the 4100 block of Eder Rd., 21222, after being notified of two suspicious deaths. Inside the residence, detectives located the bodies of Joe Magaskie and his wife, Toby, both deceased with fatal stab wounds. Joe had sold his business, Auto Liquidators, a few months prior due to financial issues. Additionally, there was a for-sale sign in the family's front yard and several pieces of mail in their mailbox. According to detectives, the home had been ransacked. Despite 41 years having passed, this case remains unsolved.
