Police Hunt Killer After Five Long Years
Since Adam’s shocking murder, police have launched multiple lines of enquiry and made arrests, yet no one has been charged. Detective Chief Inspector Cath Cummings, leading the investigation, urged witnesses to come forward. She said:
“It’s been five tough years for Adam’s family and friends who are still haunted by the sudden and tragic loss. The hardest part is knowing the killer is still out there, free on our streets.” “We meet regularly with Adam’s loved ones and share their frustration. The public should be outraged that justice has not yet been served.” “The answer lies within our communities. Keeping quiet is misplaced loyalty that Adam’s killer does not deserve. If you know something, please come forward—even anonymously via Crimestoppers.” “Bringing Adam’s killer to justice won’t bring him back, but it will give his family the closure they deserve.”
