DETECTIVES investigating the murder of a woman in Moray have launched an online portal where members of the public can share information with police.
Lucretia – known as Kiesha – Donaghy, was found dead in her home in Anderson Drive, Elgin on Thursday November 16 when officers were called to the property at around 7.20pm.
Police are carrying out “extensive” investigations and urged anyone with information to contact them.
The inquiry is being led by Police Scotland’s major investigation team.

Detective Superintendent Lorna Ferguson said: “Extensive enquiries are being carried out and I am appealing to anyone who spoke to Kiesha in the days leading up to her death or who was in the Anderson Drive area between 4.30pm on Wednesday, 15 November, and 7.20pm on Thursday, 16 November, and saw anything that may assist our investigation, to get in touch.
“We are also keen to get hold of any dash cam, private CCTV or doorbell footage from around this time.
“The information you have may seem small or insignificant, but it could be the vital piece we need.
“You will see significant police presence in the area whilst our investigation is ongoing.
“Kiesha’s family and friends will continue to be supported throughout our enquiries. It’s vital we find out exactly what happened to her and I’m appealing to the public for help to do that.
“If you have any information that may assist officers with their enquiries, then please get in touch as soon as you can.”

People can also pass information to police by calling 101 and quoting reference 3250 of Thursday November 16 2023 or by ringing Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111, where anonymity can be maintained.
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
Callum Baird, Editor of The National
