In the early morning hours of July 30, 2010, 60-year-old Frank Kellybrew was found fatally stabbed near an inn on Miller Road in Flint Township, Michigan. A retiree from General Motors, he had walked to a nearby convenience store; grocery items he purchased were found near his body. The killing was one of several brutal stabbings in the Flint area that summer, a pattern investigators concluded was the work of a serial attacker.

Authorities formed a task force after linking the attacks. Investigators identified Elias Abuelazam as a suspect in the spree and charged him with Kellybrew’s murder. Kellybrew’s DNA was reported on dried blood found on Abuelazam’s shoelaces, which were in his luggage as he attempted to leave the country; a judge later ruled there was sufficient evidence for trial. Abuelazam was subsequently tried and convicted for the murder of another victim and given life without parole, and prosecutors declined to pursue additional local murder trials, including for Kellybrew.

Did anyone in the community know Kellybrew’s routines or see anything unusual near the inn that night?
