Amanda Dhaneshwar, a retired crime lab worker died on Sunday night in her sleep in her home. She was 103 years old.
It was believed that Amanda had died of natural causes due to her old age. However, an autopsy was conducted and showed that there was an unusual substance present in Amanda’s system. Tests are still being conducted to determine her cause of death and if foul play could have been involved.
“She was a hard worker who never gave up on a case no matter how difficult it was to solve.” Raymond Keller, Amanda’s former boss said. “It is know our turn to do the same for her and give her the justice that she deserves.”
A memorial service is being planned in memory of her on Friday at her home in Jackson Heights.
Amanda was born in Queens and grew up in Jackson Heights. She graduated from Archbishop Molloy High School in 2011 and went on to study at St. John’s University. She received her Masters in Toxicology in 2016.
She went on to work that as a crime lab technician. Amanda spent countless hours on a variety of cases. She was determined to solve every case she was assigned and never gave up without a fight. She wanted to make sure that every case was brought to justice.
Amanda got married to her husband in 2021. He was an architect and built them their own home where they spent their lives together. Amanda’s husband died last August at the age of 104 from a heart attack.
Despite the loss of an amazing woman, Amanda’s memory will live on the presence of her daughter Jessica Jackson of New York; her son Alex Jackson of Florida; four grandchildren; and two great-grandchildren.
