Jerry Mnm Singleton, 36, a Black male, was killed on August 10, 2008, in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Publicly available case summaries describe his death as a homicide by violent means, though open sources do not provide additional scene details or a specific narrative of how the attack unfolded.
In the years since, Minneapolis police have kept the case open. Open-source cold case listings continue to carry his name with the Minneapolis Police Department identified as the investigating agency, and there has been no public indication of a suspect being named or arrested.
His killing occurred during a stretch when Minneapolis struggled with clearance rates for homicides, and many cases from the late-2000s remained unresolved. Contemporary reporting from the period shows that between 2007 and 2011, roughly a third of homicide cases citywide went uncleared, underscoring the difficult investigative landscape into which Singleton’s case fell and helping to explain why, even years later, it remains without an announced arrest or identified suspect in the public record.
