Do you know who killed 18 year old Alkia Joquay Rogers in 2003? On May 22, 2003, 18-year-old Alkia Joquay Rogers was tragically found murdered in the Southside Park playground in Charlotte, North Carolina. The previous evening, Alkia had left her home to meet the father of her infant son at the park to collect items for their child. When she did not return, her family reported her missing. The following day, children playing in the park discovered her body at the top of a slide.
An autopsy revealed that Alkia had been brutally strangled and her throat had been slit. The police believe that her murder was personal, not a random act, given the violence of the crime. While her son's father was questioned extensively, DNA collected from the scene did not match him or any known suspects. Despite numerous investigations, her case remains unsolved. Authorities continue to seek leads, offering a reward for information that could help solve the case.
