On July 24th, 2011, just days before her 18th birthday, 17-year-old Ne’Keisha “Keisha” Hodges-Hawkins was at a party in Krueger Memorial Park in Michigan City, Indiana, when gunfire broke out in a crowd of more than 100 people. Keisha was struck and killed, and despite the number of witnesses, no one initially came forward with information. For years, the case remained unsolved… until Keisha’s father began searching for answers himself, turning to social media to push for justice and uncover the truth about what happened that night.

Police Find Murder Plot Crumpled in Trash?! The Case of Patrick De La Cerda

In February 2018, 25-year-old Patrick De La Cerda was at home when he fell victim to an ambush-style shooting. His fiancée Jessica Devnani’s jealous ex-boyfriend, Gregory Bender, had been sending harassing messages to the couple for months. After a judge had issued a restraining order, the threats stopped… until the morning of the murder. Police followed a tip to check Bender’s home, where they came across a hand drawn map of De La Cerda’s house and notes that Bender himself made on how to carry out the murder. And if that wasn’t enough, he left out ammunition and shell casings that matched those found at the crime scene.

Jealous Rage Fueled Shooting or Accidental Firing? The Case Danielle Nemetz

On October 16, 2014, 21-year-old Skylar Nemetz shot and killed his wife, 19-year-old Danielle Nemetz. Neighbors who heard the shot were the ones to report the shooting, as Skylar was making no attempt to seek help for his wife. He then seemed to be all over the place in his questioning with the police–from upset and crying, to being combative with officers, to claiming he couldn’t remember what happened, to defending his actions.

He Could Have Been Saved: 911 Dispatch Failures Cost Kyle Plush His Life

On April 10, 2018, 16-year-old Kyle Plush got trapped in the back of his minivan, and was being crushed by the 3rd row of seats.
