The Murder of Dominique Carter-Bryant

 

Dominique Carter Bryant was murdered outside of her Louisville, Kentucky apartment on February 9th, 2013. It’s believed the 30-year-old woman was about to enter the building at 6:15 AM that morning when she was ambushed with gunfire. Dominique was shot multiple times and died on the scene. Her assailant(s) fled the area before first responders arrived. 

According to reports, Dominique went out with friends the night before her murder. It appears that she was arriving back home at the Salisbury Apartments on 22nd and Magazine Streets when she encountered the shooter(s). Dominique’s husband, niece, and daughter, who was just 11 years old at the time, were all inside the residence when the shooting took place. 

Early into the investigation, Dominique’s mother Belinda Carter shared that she did not believe her daughter’s death was random. Carter told reporters, “They waited for [Dominique]. Whoever it was waited for her. Six o'clock in the morning....they didn't rob her, so this was done intentionally.” At that time, investigators declined to say whether or not they shared the same theory with Dominique’s mother. They have continued to remain tight-lipped over the years about the status of the investigation.

In fact, there has been very little media reporting about Dominique’s case over the past decade. Her murder still remains unsolved and is considered a cold case. The Louisville Police Department has agency over the murder investigation. If you have any information that could help solve the murder of Dominique Carter Bryant, please contact authorities at 502-574-7111 or submit a tip online.

The Disappearance of Qiana Allen

 

Qiana Allen has been missing since June 23rd, 2023. The then-39-year-old woman lived in Pontiac, Michigan at the time of her disappearance. Qiana was last known to be at her home on Firelite Lane. She had a scheduled shift at a McDonald’s in Auburn Hills that day, but she never showed up. Qiana has never been seen or heard from again. 

Before vanishing, Qiana spoke on the phone with her mother, who lives in California. Her mother said that Qiana mentioned she was going to her shift at McDonald’s, and that her job was going to send her an Uber or Lyft to take to work because the buses were not running that day. Other than that, nothing seemed unusual about their conversation. 

It’s unknown if Qiana’s job did, in fact, intend to send her a rideshare service. There does not appear to be any witnesses who might have seen Qiana get into a vehicle on the day of her disappearance. It is known that Qiana never arrived at her shift that day, but further circumstances surrounding her disappearance are unclear. 

Qiana remains missing today. The Oakland County Sheriff’s Office has investigative agency over her case. If you have any information that could help solve the disappearance of Qiana Allen, please contact authorities at 248-858-4951.

The Murder of Marvayah Darby

 

Marvayah Darby was only 12 years-old when her life was tragically taken during the early-morning hours of June 13th, 2025. The young girl lived with her family in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. She was shot to death at her residence on 5000 block of N. 73rd Street.

The shooting occurred at approximately 1:20 AM. At that time, according to reports, a vehicle pulled up in front of the Darby’s home.Then, a person or persons inside the vehicle fired several rounds at the residence. Some of the bullets traveled into the home and struck Marvayah as she slept in her bedroom. She did not survive and was pronounced deceased by first responders.

The Milwaukee Police Department and the FBI have been searching for Marvayah’s killer(s) since the onset of the investigation. Unfortunately, the case has quickly grown cold; as detectives have been unable to identify any suspects. Investigators have shared that they believe “a silver or gray SUV may have been involved” in the shooting. Other than that, there is no further information about a potential suspect or suspects.

Reports state that the Darby family had moved into the home just a few weeks prior to the shooting. One particular report on the case states that “detectives believe the house itself may have been the target, not Marvayah.” Relatives of the family have stated that they do not know why anyone would want to harm Marvayah or anyone in her family.

Investigators have reportedly interviewed neighbors of the Darby family, classmates of Marvayah, and “anyone listed in gang databases.” Unfortunately, nothing has led detectives to any substantial leads. The FBI has offered a $10,000 reward in exchange for information that leads to the arrest/conviction of Marvayah’s killer(s).

If you have any information that could help solve the murder of Marvayah Darby, please contact the Milwaukee Police Department at (414) 935-7360 or submit a tip online.

The Disappearance of Jacqueline McNeil

 

Jacqueline McNeil has been missing since June 19th, 2024. 

The then-25-year-old was last seen in St. Louis, Missouri. On the day of her disappearance, Jacqueline met up with her father at the intersection of Grand Boulevard and Kossuth Avenue next to Fairground Park. According to her father, the two sat in his vehicle and chatted; he then gave her some money before they parted ways. Jacqueline’s loved ones have never seen or heard from her again.

Certain reports indicate that Jacqueline was homeless at the time of her disappearance. Despite this, she kept in frequent contact with her family members - especially her two young children. Friends and family have said that Jacqueline’s sudden absence was completely out-of-character, and they have since been fighting to find answers about her disappearance. 

The St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department and the Missouri State Highway Patrol are both involved in the investigation into Jacqueline’s disappearance. If you have any information that could lead to her whereabouts, please contact authorities at 314‐231‐1212 or 573‐526‐6178.

The Murders of Kevin and Cedric Kind

Kevin (left) and Cedric (right) Kind.

The morning of July 13th, 2019 began as a normal day for the members of the Kind family. Kevin Kind, a 42-year-old resident of Fitzgerald, Georgia went to his job at a local car wash. By 8:30 AM, what was supposed to be a normal work shift quickly turned into a tragic event when Kevin was found shot to death inside the car wash. 

Approximately thirty minutes later, 40-year-old Cedric Kind was also found shot to death inside his Fitzgerald residence. Said residence is located just streets away from the car wash where his brother Kevin had been found shot less than an hour earlier. It was immediately believed that the killings were connected and not just a tragic coincidence. 

Loved ones of the Kind brothers stated they do not know who would want either of them dead. Kevin has been described as a kind man who loved his mother dearly. He worked at Johnson’s Car Wash and was called a “car wash legend” by his boss. Cedric, who was paralyzed from the waist down, has been described as a quiet but loving young man. Friends and family of both men have been left without answers and are still hoping to find justice.

Authorities have revealed very little about the status of the investigation. In 2023, it was reported that investigators believe the killings were gang related. However, no further information about that has been disclosed. No arrests have ever been made in the case.

The FBI has set a monetary reward that is available in exchange for information that could lead to an arrest and conviction of the killer(s) of Kevin and Cedric Kind. If you have any information that could help the investigation, please contact the FBI's Atlanta Field Office at (770) 216-3000 or submit a tip online.

The Murder of Kenisha Dixon

 

Kenisha Dixon’s life was senselessly and tragically taken from her on May 9th, 2000. 

The 21-year-old woman was at her apartment in Houston, Texas on the morning of her murder. At 11:10 AM, Kenisha heard a knock on her front door. She opened it and was immediately shot to death by the person on the other side of the door. Kenisha’s assailant fled the scene after the shooting and to this day has never been identified. 

Very little is known about Kenisha and/or the events leading up to her death. What is known is that she moved into the apartment where she was killed just two months earlier. Kenisha did not have a boyfriend but lived with a male roommate. Said roommate was reportedly not home at the time of Kenisha’s murder.

It’s also known that Kenisha seemed to be fearful of answering the door that morning. She reportedly grabbed a handgun before opening the door. Unfortunately, Kenisha was shot so quickly that she did not have time to defend herself. Investigators later discovered the handgun in close proximity to Kenisha’s body. 

Kenisha’s male roommate told police that he was the owner of said handgun. The reason why Kenisha felt she needed to bring it with her to answer the door remains a mystery. It’s clear that she was correct about any danger she might have sensed - but the reasons why she was scared, and why she was killed, are unknown to this day. 

The Houston PD stated that “investigators were able to ascertain valuable information while conducting a canvas, interviewing residents of the apartment complex and others.” Still, over 25 years have passed since Kenisha’s murder, and no arrests have been made - nor have any suspects been publicly identified.

Kenisha’s murder remains unsolved. Her case is listed as a cold case by the Houston Police Department. Anyone with information that could help solve the murder of Kenisha Dixon is asked to contact the Houston PD Cold Case Squad at 713-308-3618.

The Disappearance and Murder of Danielle Moss

 

Danielle Moss vanished in Washington, DC on April 9th, 2023. The 32-year-old woman was last seen between 11:00 AM and 12:00 PM that day, reportedly at a liquor store near her residence on Q Street. Danielle was supposed to go to her parents’ residence that afternoon to celebrate Easter with her family members. She never showed up, and her loved ones never saw or heard from her again.

Danielle was reported missing on April 11th, 2023, after her family learned that she had not been answering phone calls from Andre Hudson, the father of her son. Danielle’s son was only 3 years old at the time, and he had been with his father on the weekend of Danielle’s disappearance. Family members say that Danielle would never ignore calls regarding her son, nor would she ever voluntarily leave him behind. 

Two months passed without any sign of Danielle. Then, on June 10th, 2023, police in Waldorf, Maryland received a call about a partially covered body that had been spotted in a wooded area near Holly Springs Drive. Days later, authorities announced that the body was that of Danielle Moss. Her death was ruled a homicide, though her exact cause of death has not been disclosed.

Shortly after Danielle’s body was found, police stated that they were speaking to a person of interest. However, years have passed, and no persons of interest or suspects have ever been publicly identified. Reports indicate that Danielle’s family believed she was “involved with some people who didn’t have her best interests in mind”, but they still do not know who would have wanted her dead. Danielle has been described as a dedicated mother who had a good co-parenting relationship with her son’s father. She did not have any known enemies.

The Charles County Sheriff’s Office is investigating Danielle’s homicide. If you have any information that could help solve the case, please contact authorities at 301-609-6518.
