On a summer night in 1993, 19-year-old Gregory Fickess had just gotten out of his car in downtown Rochester when he was jumped in a seemingly unprovoked, fatal act of violence. A case with no motive and few cooperating witnesses is tough, but when detectives find out that one of the few cooperating witnesses they did have died suddenly under strange circumstances, it seems like one more sign that the theory they do have might be right.

Being a 13-year-old kid can be tough, to say the least. But it seemed as if Jonathan Garcia-Valladares had it figured out. He was an overachieving student, was a chess player, and had just joined the football team. But on a crisp fall day in 2010, as Jonathan was trying to get in shape for the sport, his short life would come to an end.
In the 15 years since, law enforcement is still trying to uncover why, and, most importantly… who would do this to an innocent young kid who had his entire life ahead of him.

If you have any information about the murder of Jonathan Garcia-Valladares in Phoenix, Arizona, please contact Detective Roestenberg or anyone at the Phoenix Police Department during the day at 602-495-5883, and at night, you can call 602-262-6141.

Robert was known as a quiet man who stayed out of trouble, so when he was found shot to death in his home one morning in the winter of 2002, police were initially stumped when it came to both motive and culprit. That might’ve been because Robert was never the intended target in what’s now become a mystery that investigators hope one of you may hold the key to solving.
