Reward Offered In Jennifer Nielsen Case

From the News & Observer:

The family of Jennifer Kathleen Nielsen said Friday that their greatest priorities are finding the person responsible for her death and changing state laws that do not recognize fetal homicide.

Nielsen’s friends and family, including her husband and two young sons, gathered in a downtown park to announce a $10,000 reward for information leading to the arrest and conviction for whoever is responsible for her death the early morning hours of June 14. Nielsen was eight months pregnant.

“It would mean the world to us to know this person is off the street and won’t cause this kind of tragedy to another family,” Nielsen’s father, Kevin Blaine, said.

The reward and other efforts, including a hot line and composite sketch of a person of interest, are yielding tips from the public, Raleigh police spokesman Jim Sughrue said.
