WOWT had a news story last night on this crime and their site has this article today:
Despite a $50,000 reward for information, the March 2008 murders of 11-year-old Thomas Hunter and Shirlee Sherman in the Dundee neighborhood of Omaha remain unsolved.
Police are still asking questions and those who live in the neighborhood say they're concerned that a killer is still on the loose. Theres not much information coming from police headquarters, but those who live and work in the area are still concerned and worried.
I cant understand why he would kill two people like that and I have kids and would be worried about it, said resident David Radler. I am worried about it.
Radler remembers how the killings affected residents. "Its something that I worry about cause it was such a random, maybe it wasnt random, but it was so significant it touched so many peoples lives and its still out there. It needs to be closed and we need to find out what happened.
Police are still trying to figure out what happened. The case is now a part of the FBI Web page. Officials are seeking information about the killings of the Hunter boy and the family housekeeper found in the Hunter home on March 13, 2008. Officials would like to talk to a man with a dark or olive complexion who got out of an SUV that looked like a gray or silver Honda.
This does not make Lori Robinson afraid. She still moves around the Dundee neighborhood where she works, but is more aware of what goes on around her.
Oh yeah, it worries you to think that the person is out there and could it again. I wouldn't be so worried about it for myself, but worried about the kid that didnt deserve it, being a mom.
Police did not respond to a request from Channel 6 News for an interview about the double homicide. Anyone with information about it should call police at 444-7867. You do not have to leave your name.
