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.
