About this episode
On the night of November 1, 1999, Kevin Brame, a 31-year-old police officer, dropped his two sons off at his estranged wife’s house in Dayton, Ohio. As Kevin walked back to his car, an assailant stepped out of the bushes near his car and shot him in the back of the neck with a shotgun. It’s been nearly 24 years since Officer Kevin Brame was killed, and investigators are still searching for the person responsible…

If you have information in Kevin Brame’s murder, you can call Crime Stoppers at 800-637-5735. There is a $100,000 reward available.
