Kenneth Jerome got up that summer morning in 2005 and said goodbye to his girlfriend and children, just like he did every day. He set about his usual chores on the farm, just like he always did, and he expected to feed the cows, like he had for years. But July 7th was not like every other day. Kenny’s routine was pierced by a single gunshot wound that stole him from the family, friends, and community who loved him fiercely.

Now 20 years later, no one has been charged with his murder. In this small Vermont town, suspicion has run rampant for years, but suspicion alone has yet to rise to the level of an arrest.

  • If you have information about the unsolved homicide of Kenny Jerome, please contact Captain J.P. Schmidt at the Vermont State Police Major Crime Unit at (802) 244-8727. Tips may also be submitted anonymously by texting the keyword VTIPS to 274637 or via the form.
