Five years ago today, farmhand Kenneth Jerome was shot in broad daylight as he worked in the barnyard at Diamond Hill Custom Heifers Farm in Sheldon.
Kenny was a BFA Graduate and lived in Fletcher. He had many close friends in the area.
The killing remains unsolved despite a reward posted by friends, family and Jerome’s employers.
Police said this week they have few new leads but haven’t given up hope that time might loosen the lips of someone who knows of the person or persons who committed the crime.
