On a fall day in Buffalo, New York, the life of a young Black man was tragically cut short. Mister D. Rodgers, a 23-year-old male, was killed on October 24, 2009. The incident that led to his death occurred on Genesee Street, leaving a void in the lives of those who knew him.
In the years that have passed since Rodgers' death, the case has grown cold. Information regarding the circumstances of his murder has been scarce, and details about what transpired on that fateful day have not been publicly released by authorities. The Buffalo Police Department investigated the homicide, but their efforts have not led to any arrests.
The case is now listed in the Project Cold Case database, a grim reminder that justice for Mister D. Rodgers remains elusive. There is no publicly available information that identifies any suspect or suspects in his killing. The silence surrounding his death is a heavy weight for his family and community, who still await answers and closure more than a decade later. Anyone with information regarding the case is encouraged to contact the Buffalo Police Department.
