This case has always been in the jurisdiction of the Detroit Metropolitan Police. Initially, the entire police force was involved in it, but by five months later, there were only three officers still working it. It was literally "front page news" but shortly after the murders occurred, the Detroit newspapers went on strike and the major papers did not resume publication until 5 months later. After a one-time summary and revisit of the case, it went into obscurity.It's really a shame. Such a shocking murder in a nice neighborhood during a holiday.

Detroit PD must be overwhelmed or understaffed. There are a number of cold cases followed here that get no assistance.
