Jessie Hines, recorded as 62 years old, was found dead on September 5, 2011, in Detroit’s east side 13720 block of East Seven Mile Road in the Regent Park area. Media reports at the time did not specify whether he was discovered inside a business or out on the street, but the death was officially classified as a homicide and entered as victim number 242 on Detroit’s 2011 homicide registry.

Detroit was experiencing a high volume of violent crime that year, and Hines’s case received little detailed coverage. Public databases tracking unsolved Michigan crimes list his killing among unresolved homicides; no arrests, charges, or convictions have been recorded in connection with his death, and the case remains open.

Did anyone in the Regent Park area in 2011 have information about Hines, his movements that day, or potential witnesses to what happened on East Seven Mile Road?
