Loretta Alexander, 47, was killed on January 12, 2017, in Houston, Texas. Her death occurred during a period when the city experienced a surge of violent incidents, including gang-related violence, fatal domestic disputes, carjackings and retaliatory killings, and became one of several high-profile homicides that strained local policing resources that year.

Details about suspects, motive and the specific circumstances of Loretta’s killing have been scarce. Investigators faced challenges common to other unsolved cases from that period, including a lack of significant leads and limited public cooperation. Her family and friends continue to seek justice and hope that new evidence or investigative advances might eventually bring answers.

Did anyone in Houston in January 2017 see or hear anything that could help resolve Loretta Alexander’s case?
