Joshua Parker was a 21-year-old resident of Houston, Texas, who was killed on November 14, 2008. His death is listed among the many unresolved homicides from that period and is treated as a cold case by the Houston Police Department.

The HPD Cold Case Squad continues to handle Parker’s file and has used measures such as forensic re-analysis, witness re-interviews, and cooperation with the FBI and the Texas Rangers. Local partners including Crime Stoppers and the Houston Forensic Science Center have provided support and incentives for tips, but the case still has seen little resolution and remains open due to a lack of actionable evidence and leads.

Anyone with information about Joshua Parker or his death is encouraged to contact the authorities to help move this investigation forward.
