It has been two years since the tragic murder of 29-year-old Hayden Davis, a transgender woman found shot multiple times and wrapped in a blanket on Detroit’s west side at the corner of Fenkell Avenue and Lesure Street.

Despite the passage of time, the case remains unsolved, leaving family, friends and advocates searching for answers.

On Wednesday, family members of Davis, along with representatives from Crime Stoppers, canvassed the neighborhood where she lost her life, distributing flyers in hopes of uncovering new information about her murder. The flyers featured Davis’ photo and details surrounding the case, urging anyone with knowledge to come forward.
