Otis Henderson, a 28-year-old Black man, was found dead in Detroit on or about August 12, 2015. His death was classified as a homicide, but publicly released accounts do not include detailed information about the precise cause of death or the events that led to his killing.

An estate was opened after his death and later filed a federal lawsuit, Henderson v. Jackson, in the Eastern District of Michigan. That litigation arose from an earlier encounter in which Henderson reportedly fled on foot from Detroit police. Court filings in the case state that Henderson ultimately died of causes unrelated to that police confrontation.

No arrests or charges have been announced in connection with the homicide, and no suspects have been publicly named. Does anyone have information about Henderson’s last known movements or the investigation in 2015 that could help resolve this case?
