Sean A. White was 19 when he was shot and killed in Philadelphia on June 21, 2007. An African American young man, he worked at a pet store handling reptiles and hoped to become a veterinary technician. Family and friends remembered him as happy, kind, protective of his mother and sister, and someone who loved to dance to Michael Jackson.

The homicide remains unsolved. The Philadelphia Police Department’s 2007 homicide records list his case, but no suspects have been publicly identified, and no arrests, convictions, or sentences have been announced. Little else about any investigative leads has been made public.

If anyone has information about Sean, his last movements, or the circumstances of that day, please come forward to help his family find answers.
