Cameron Blake Kasprzycki was 14 when he was shot and killed in Jackson, Michigan, on Friday, February 21, 2020. A freshman at East Jackson High School who had also attended Michigan Center Schools, he competed in basketball, track and boxing and was remembered by family and friends as having a gentle spirit, a silly sense of humor and a charismatic personality.

In the months after the killing, Cameron’s family staged demonstrations in Jackson to keep attention on the case and to press for information, saying they were frustrated by what they described as poor communication from the Jackson Police Department and that suspected individuals remained at large. As of early 2021 the department said the investigation remained open and active and that detectives were trying to locate and interview people who might have information; no arrests or charges had been announced.
