Hi, thank you for the info. I just looked Patrick Kennedy up because his case is the only cold case from the small town that I live in. There is little to no information on the Muskego police department site, and your info is about all that is online pertaining to this.

I am wondering why he is not listed on Wisconsin’s missing children and adults website. Makes me wonder how many others are not on their site.

Strange, the NamUs link is not accessible now?

Case #2: Patrick D. Kennedy - Missing since April 23, 1988
Kennedy was last seen at the Black Duck Inn W145 S8016 Schultz Dr., Muskego, Wisconsin. Kennedy apparently asked a friend for a ride home. The friend did not want to leave so Kennedy left on foot. This was the last time anyone has seen him.

Do you know what “The Black Duck Inn” was in 1998? Is it near water?

Looks like this may have been resolved? The NamUs page is coming up profile not found.

Hi! Patrick was one of my closest best friends at his time of vanishing. It's been a long time but I remember the date being April 25 1985. I could be wrong but that's the date stuck in my head all these years. I did have the news paper clipping from the Muskego sun times but my wife didn't know what it was and how important to me it was and tossed it. One thing I am sure of is last place he was seen wasn't home. It was Jeff's black duck in on big Muskego lake. I always believed his brother Mike to know something but afraid to come forth as if he was threatened.

Update to my post. I am thinking now the date could be right. I think me and him where still playing pool leagues for the office in 1985.

Yes it is on the water- it is now Schultz Gun club. Not sure what it would have been in 98.

thanks for your info. That’s very interesting. Is there a reason you felt like the brother knew something or just a grudge? Just curious if the police ever questioned him or if they even cared at all back in the day. I am a supporter of our police but I have to admit, muskego police nowadays seem to only be concerned with traffic stops and nothing else.

Patrick's NamUs link still isn't working, is there a reason he has been removed? has he been found?

 

[Kristinm228]

He is still on the cold case board at the Muskego Wisconsin PD as of today. Not sure what that’s worth since they haven’t removed the other cold case our city has that was solved last year

Just a gut feeling cause he really acted like he was afraid of something almost like he was threatened. I could be Wong but it's a feeling. The police I do believe did talk to him then. Pat also had a son. I'm not gona mention his name though.

The police were involved. The only reason I'm aware of this case is I worked at the community papers in early 2000s. I lived in Muskego at the time and was chatting with the reporter who worked the area. She mentioned about covering the police chief retiring. She said that not solving this case is what bothered him most about his career. She said he felt Patrick was murdered at the Black Duck but could never get any evidence.

Too bad after all these years he doesn't come forward with anything he knows. You'd think he'd be safe by now but I don't know any details.

If the tavern is where Schultz gun club is, it’s ridiculously close to Muskego lake.
