Vince Franklin, 49, was found shot to death in a Newark, New Jersey neighborhood on April 2, 2012. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds, and authorities described the area where he was discovered as one with high crime rates.

Essex County Sheriff’s Crimestoppers offered up to a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest. Newark Police canvassed the neighborhood for witnesses and reviewed surveillance footage, but investigators faced a shortage of eyewitnesses and community reluctance to come forward because of fear of retaliation. Several people were identified as suspects and the case remained unsolved for a considerable time.

A later arrest was reported and charges were filed, and the investigation and legal process drew public attention. Does anyone have information about Vince, his routines, or who might have seen something in that neighborhood on or around April 2, 2012?
