Kellie Owens, a loving mother and a cherished friend, was found dead in her apartment 17 years ago. Her two-year-old daughter was left alone in the bedroom, oblivious to the tragedy that had befallen her mother. Despite the passage of time, no one has been held accountable for this heinous crime. This enduring injustice has caused immense pain and suffering for Kellie's family and friends who yearn for answers about why such a golden heart was taken from them.

We are calling on the Charlotte Mecklenburg Police Department to continue working on Kellie's murder case until her murderer is brought to justice. According to data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), approximately 40% of homicides go unsolved each year in America (source: FBI Uniform Crime Reporting Program). We cannot allow Kellie's case to remain part of this grim statistic.

It is crucial that we ensure justice prevails not only for Kellie but also as a stand against all unsolved murders which leave families in anguish and perpetrators unpunished. We implore you to support us in our quest for truth and justice by signing this petition today. Let us together urge authorities not just merely investigate, but actively pursue leads until they find those responsible for taking away our beloved Kellie from us.

There’s a $10,000 dollar reward for any information leading to Kellie’s killer. If you have any information, contact Crime Stoppers at 334-1600.
