Esme Kenney was 13 when she was murdered on March 7, 2009, while jogging near the Winton Hills reservoir in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her mother, Lisa Kenney, reported her missing after Esme failed to return; a search led officers to find Anthony Kirkland asleep near the reservoir with Esme’s watch and an iPod engraved with her name. Kirkland later confessed that he attacked Esme after she accidentally bumped into him, saying the encounter triggered memories of his son’s mother and that he then assaulted and killed the girl and burned her body.

Kirkland had a documented history of violent crimes dating back to 1987 and was linked by investigators to multiple murders between 2006 and 2009 in which victims were strangled and their bodies burned. He was arrested and charged in Esme’s killing; at trial he pleaded guilty to several charges including aggravated murder and abuse of a corpse. The trial included testimony from Esme’s mother about the day her daughter disappeared.

Does anyone have information about Esme’s last known route or who may have seen her near the reservoir that morning?
