Unsolved Syracuse Maintanence Fund

Donation protected


Unsolved Syracuse represents the more than 80 missing persons and unsolved homicides that occurred in our local area. These cases mostly concern minorities - whether it be the color of their skin, the socio-economic status, mental illness or some other form of disability. These are the cases that get less than 1/8 the media coverage of non minority groups.
What We Do:
*Scour the web for the newest cases of missing persons and unsolved homicides.
*Regularly update information about any current cases on the site.
*Add new cases as they come in - with a full profile and attached tip sheet.
*Highlight each case at least 2 times a year. Cases will be featured on our Facebook news feed on the anniversary of the missing persons report being filed, The date of the homicide as well as the victim's birthday - except when, by chance the victim's date of report or homicide as well as their birthday falls on the same day. In those very rare cases, the case will only be highlighted once a year. Currently we have one case that falls under this rare circumstance... Darnell McMullen.
*Keep our community informed with our quarterly newsletter - which features missing and unsolved cases as well as other related topics.
*Respond to email messages, texts and other types of requests we are sent to us.
*Notify the victim's family that their case will be featured and set up Facebook Highlight Features into Facebook news feeds. We also assist families with updating the profiles of victims that have been re-victimized by the media or law officials.
*Forward any anonymous tips that we receive without revealing the source or identity of the individual.
*Vigil announcements- When a family or organization contacts us, we will post their listing on this site as well as on the Face Book news feed.
*Assume responsibility for being a voice for the voiceless and a helping hand to the community as well.
*We are still actively working toward expanding our reach within the community, we will continue to work with businesses in specific areas where each crime occurred to post case profile posters for individual unsolved cases to increase their visibility.
* Sponsor a new addition to unsolved - Life Skills - in order to promote positive growth in our community as a whole.
* Generate and send in case tips to the SPD.
* Write letters on behalf of the family when a person has been convicted but the body is still missing, asking for information or assistance.
*Send sympathy cards or packages to families of the victims when we have funding to do so.
* Keep you up to date on shots fired reports that would otherwise be hidden.
* Help families of the victims' individually with generating new information.
* Regularly update Facebook, twitter and pinterest accounts to increase our reach and impact.
* Show up everyday @ 5:30 a.m. to begin working a case, while holding down a regular full time employment separate to Unsolved Syracuse while preforming random check ins and constant updates, then working into the evening or later to work on cases and search for information that could assist in solving these crimes.
* Take pride in the level of dedication and work it takes to run Unsolved Syracuse.
