Kozee Spriggs was 18 when she was reported missing in Baltimore on June 8, 2021. A Black female, her decomposing body was found a week later on June 15 in a backyard on the 1300 block of Ensor Street. The medical examiner ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators connected 38-year-old Kevin Dudley to the case. Charging documents said Spriggs and Dudley were involved in drug dealing and had a dispute over drugs and money. Surveillance from June 3, 2021, showed a car tied to a rental in Dudley’s name arrive near the yard where Spriggs was found; three people exited and walked into the yard. Dudley was arrested on June 17, 2021, later admitted to being in the area and to riding in the getaway car, and was charged with first- and second-degree murder as an accomplice rather than the shooter. No one else had been charged in connection with Spriggs’ death as of the last update.

If anyone knew Kozee, saw that car or the three people in the area on June 3, or has other information, please share what is known.
