Rodney Lee, a 30-year-old African American man from Fort Worth, Texas, died on August 27, 1978. His body was found in an abandoned building after he had been reported missing several days earlier. Investigators recorded blunt force trauma and signs that he had been attacked before his death.

Authorities questioned several people who had been associated with Rodney in the period before his death, and investigators considered multiple theories including a robbery and a targeted attack arising from personal conflicts. No arrests were made in the immediate aftermath, and the case went cold for a time despite occasional new leads and periodic updates.

The death remains an unsolved homicide in Fort Worth. Does anyone have memories, documents, or information about Rodney’s life, associates, or the investigation that could help reopen leads?
