Dythaniel Miskell, a 35-year-old Black man, died in New Orleans, Louisiana, on March 14, 2010. His death is listed among the city’s homicides for that year, but virtually nothing about the case was made public at the time.

Key facts such as where in New Orleans he was found, the nature of his injuries, or what led to his death were not released in contemporaneous reporting, and no witnesses or media accounts have filled those gaps. No suspects have been publicly identified and no arrests were announced; as of March 2010 the killing remained unsolved.

Anyone who knew Dythaniel, was in his neighborhood that day, or has information about his death is asked to come forward.
