Justice for Ryan Riddell and Mark Prasse

THANKS TO ALL WHO HELPED US REACH OUR $10,000 GOAL!  The $10,000 matching funds from Season of Justice means that we will have $20,000 to conduct advanced forensic testing on evidence seized from the crime scene!

These two young men were robbed of their lives, and those responsible must be found.

 

Ryan Riddell and Mark Prasse were just 32 years-old when they were gunned down at Mark Prasse’s rural Christman, IL home on January 28, 2008. Their loved ones are hoping that items collected at the scene by police contain trace evidence that can link those responsible to this brutal crime, and bring them to justice.

 

The Illinois State Police are heading up this investigation, and they are working with a lab to do advanced forensic work on those collected items. The lab is a private company and the scientific work it conducts will need to be paid for.

 

The first $10,000 given will be matched by Season of Justice!

 

Season of Justice is a non-profit organization dedicated to assisting law enforcement by providing funding to do advanced forensic examination on pieces of evidence, so that violent criminals can be brought to justice for their senseless crimes. The family and friends of Ryan and Mark reached their initial goal to raise $10,000 to assist with the advanced scientific examination of the collected items from the crime scene. Season of Justice will match the first $10,000!  With the Season of Justice $10,000 match, there will be $20,000 to use for advanced forensic testing on the unsolved murders of Ryan and Mark!     

 

As a reminder, there is a $25,000 reward for information that leads to the arrest and conviction of the person or persons responsible for the murders of Ryan Riddell and Mark Prasse. You can call the Illinois State Police to give information. The Wabash Valley Crime Stoppers is also paying an additional $1,000 for information that leads to the arrest of the perpetrator(s). You can reach them anonymously by web at: wvcrimestoppers.org or through the P3 Tips app.

 

Please help us find the killers who took the lives of Ryan Riddell and Mark Prasse.
