Cold case murders are unsolved homicide cases that have gone cold over time, leaving families and communities seeking justice. These cases often lack leads or evidence, leading to frustration and unresolved grief for loved ones.

One notable petition calling for the reopening of a cold case murder has garnered widespread support, pointing to overlooked evidence and potential suspects that were never properly investigated. Another petition highlights the need for increased funding for forensic DNA testing in cold cases, emphasizing the role of technology in bringing closure to families.
Join the movement to bring justice to victims and their families by supporting the petitions on cold case murders. Your involvement can help shine a light on these forgotten cases and hold perpetrators accountable for their actions.

To boil it down, a Wife lost her Husband and their 6 kids lost their Father, their hero. A Federal law enforcement officer seems to have lost his life under suspicious circumstances. A proper investigation into his death should be conducted, beginning with granting the family’s FOIA Request (Freedom of Information Act Request) and eventually this family can have long awaited answers and a factual understanding about the events and circumstances surrounding his untimely death. At which point, this Family could properly begin to heal.
I hope your family gets the answers and accountability you deserve.
What has happened to Jeanette is a tragedy. It's sad and hurtful that the very people that were suppose to have respect for and who are suppose to "serve and protect" seem to have done the very opposite. I pray that she gets justice and the truth is revealed. She deserves it!
Jannette DePalma's death is very personal to me becuse no one needs to be killed. And we need justice for her, so we become Jeanette's voice. We need to make sure that Janette is not forgotten.
Every child deserves a voice to fight for them if they cannot fight for themselves. Jeanette and the DePalma family deserve justice and closure. And so does the entirety of America. The moment we stop fighting for our lives to be valued and investigated the the extent needed that is the moment human life looses its value all together. Jeanette, your life mattered and you are not forgotten, you will get justice and you are worth fighting for. Rest in peace and May swift justice come for the killer. And closure for the DePalma family.
I still remember the morning my God brother called me to tell Shukeyina had been killed. I thought i was dreaming. I had to be the one to tell my sister and my nephew that their daughter and sister was no longer living. That's a feeling and I will never forget. It's going on 6 years and the person/persons responsible for this have yet to held accountable
You took a mother from 2 young children that has to grow up without their mother. Please help us get justice for Shukeyina her children her mother brother and the rest of our family
Dear Friends and Community,
I am writing to share the profound impact that the loss of my daughter, Shukeyina, has had on our family, especially on my son, Donald. Losing a loved one is never easy, but the pain of losing a sister has been particularly devastating for Donald.
Shukeyina was not just a sister to Donald; she was his confidant, his role model, and his best friend. They shared countless memories, laughter, and dreams. Her sudden departure has left a void in Donald's heart that words cannot fully express.
Donald has been struggling to cope with the immense grief and sorrow. The pain of losing Shukeyina has affected every aspect of his life. He finds it difficult to concentrate on his studies, and his once joyful demeanor has been replaced with a deep sense of sadness. The bond they shared was unique and irreplaceable, and her absence is felt every single day.
Shukeyina also left behind two beautiful children, Keon Jr. and Kylie, who miss their mother dearly. Their loss has added another layer of pain to our family, as we try to support them through this difficult time. As their grandmother, I cherished every moment I spent with them when Shukeyina was alive. Now, I rarely get to see them, and it feels as though they are being kept away from me. I fear that as the years go by, they will not remember the love and bond we shared.
As a mother, it breaks my heart to see my son in so much pain. I have tried to be there for him, to offer comfort and support, but I know that the journey of healing is a long and arduous one. Donald's grief is a testament to the love he had for his sister, and it is a reminder of how deeply connected they were.
I am reaching out to you, our friends and community, to ask for your support and understanding during this difficult time. Grief is a heavy burden to bear, and it is through the love and compassion of those around us that we find the strength to carry on. Please keep Donald, Keon Jr., and Kylie in your thoughts and prayers as they navigate this painful journey.
Thank you for your kindness and support.
Sincerely, Kimberly Godfrey
On April 26, 2019, my beloved daughter, Shukeyina Godfrey, was tragically murdered in the 5200 block of West Quincy Street, Chicago. Her truck had over 100 bullet holes, a senseless act of violence that has left our family devastated and searching for answers.
Shukeyina was not just a victim; she was a loving daughter, a devoted mother, a cherished granddaughter, a caring sister, and a beloved niece. As a daughter, she brought joy and pride to our family with her kindness and determination. As a mother, she was nurturing and dedicated, always putting her children first and ensuring they felt loved and supported. As a granddaughter, she shared a special bond with her grandparents, bringing them happiness and comfort. As a sister, she was a source of strength and companionship, always there to lend a helping hand or a listening ear. As a niece, she was adored by her aunts and uncles, who admired her resilience and spirit.
Despite numerous challenges and a lack of communication from the police department, I remain determined to find justice for Shukeyina. Throughout this process, I have faced constant changes in the detectives assigned to her case, which has hindered the progress of the investigation. As a grieving mother, I deserve to be kept informed about the progress of my daughter's case and to have a consistent point of contact within the police department.
I am calling on the Chicago Police Department to take immediate action to address these concerns and ensure that justice is served for Shukeyina. It is crucial that the department provides transparency and accountability in their investigations, not only for my family but for all families who have experienced similar tragedies.
Shukeyina was my beautiful niece whom was loved so deeply ❤️ This tragedy has been a nightmare that needs justice. My husband Antonio Godfrey received that phone call,using videos speaking to detective,they want the people who was so violent an took this daughter, niece,mother away from her family need to be brought to Justice an we need the police to do just that!!!
