As the year comes to a close, Dallas police continue their search for three suspects responsible for the brutal and inexplicable murder of Alice Fisher, according to FOX 4 News. On a January night in her West Dallas apartment, Fisher, grappling with medical issues and separated by fortune from the world’s winds, was shot nine times.
Despite an extensive coverage and public outreach campaign including the city's Trackdown series, Detective Joshua Conklin with the Dallas Police Department's homicide unit indicated that the trail has gone cold, “This case, it involves an older lady that really didn’t have anything. She wasn’t involved in anything out here. She had some medical problems," he told Crime Watch Dallas. Surveillance footage captured a dark gray, or possibly black, Ford Escape without a front license plate and missing its radio antenna — a vehicle believed to be connected with the three suspects, which could underpin their eventual undoing.
In a display of resilience, the Dallas community continues to work with authorities, as FOX 4 viewers have contributed to a notable 216 arrests through the Trackdown initiative. The current case renews a plea for tips and information from the public. Clues, even hearsay or second-hand knowledge, could aid in the identification of the suspects—three Black males, clad in all black, faces obscured by masks. Detection Conklin asserts the conviction that someone, somewhere, holds the pivotal piece of this tragic puzzle.
With the investigation stalled, Det. Conklin remains hopeful for a break in the case, stressing the importance of community assistance, "Usually they’re telling something to somebody, even if it’s just one person. Usually they’re saying something to someone," he explained to FOX 4. Anyone with knowledge pertinent to the investigation is encouraged to reach out to Detective Conklin directly at 214-671-3488 or through his email.
