Fox Point Man Pleads for Help Finding Son's Killer

JJ Kohen was killed in Milwaukee nine months ago, and police have yet to find the man believed responsible.

TMJ4 recently featured the murder of JJ Kohen, son of Fox Point's Rick Kohen, on its Crack That Case feature.

The reporter spoke with Rick Kohen about his son, who said he can't understand why someone murdered JJ Kohen in April. "I think the thing that I missed most about my son would probably be the nature that he had within him to love everybody unconditionally."

When he spoke with TMJ4 about his son's death, he once again urged anyone who has information about JJ's murder to come forward.

The family has also put up billboards around the Milwaukee area, offering a $10,000 reward for information about JJ's killer.

And TMJ did speak with someone who has information. The woman has spoken to police as well, and said during the news piece that she saw the man she believes murdered JJ Kohen, and then saw JJ, screaming for help. She brought him to the hospital, where he later died.
