In the early morning hours of Friday, May 1, 2015, the body of a woman, Krystal Pinson, who was also known by the nickname 'Baby,' was discovered in a place of desolation. A passerby stumbled upon the scene at approximately 6:30 a.m. in the garage of an abandoned house on the southwest side of Detroit. The residence, located at 4841 Chopin, stood between Michigan Avenue and the eastbound I-94 Service Drive.
Krystal was found with severe injuries to her head.
Months later, the pain of her unsolved death remained palpable for her family. At a press conference in December 2015, her loved ones spoke of their profound loss. Krystal was remembered as a daughter, a mother of two children, a sister, and a friend who cherished life. Her family conveyed the depth of their grief and the void left by her absence, particularly for her children who were left to grow up without their mother.
During the press conference, Crime Stoppers of Michigan announced a reward of $2,500 for any information that would lead to the arrest of the person or persons responsible for Krystal Pinson's death. Despite the public plea for assistance and the passage of time, publicly available information does not indicate that any arrests have been made in connection with her murder. The case remains a lingering mystery, leaving a family to grapple with an unanswered question and the profound sorrow of a life cut short.
