Our card this week is Kenneth "Kenny" Floyd, a Wild Card from Colorado.

When Kenneth “Kenny” Floyd was found dead inside his apartment in Aurora, Colorado, in 1995, detectives found a clue they hoped would lead right to his killer — a trail of their suspect’s blood leading from Kenny’s door to the front of his building. That blood evidence allowed investigators to develop a DNA profile that they traced to one particular island in the Caribbean, bringing them closer than ever to finding answers for Kenny’s close-knit family. But a series of volcanic eruptions on the island destroyed the very records investigators needed to ID Kenny’s killer. Still, the genealogist working on Kenny’s case is hopeful that if more people with ancestry from that island, or the East Coast of the United States, upload their DNA profiles to GEDMatch and select the option to opt-in for law enforcement, she’ll be able to fill in the rest of the suspect’s family tree….and if she can do that, investigators might be able to finally close this case.

If you have any information on the murder of Kenny Floyd, please contact Aurora Police Department Cold Case Detective Jason McDonald at 303-739-6013 or jamcdona@auroragov.org. You can also submit an anonymous tip to the Metro Denver Crime Stoppers by calling 720-913-7867.
If you have any family from the island of Montserrat or the East Coast of the United States, please consider uploading your DNA profile to GEDMatch and selecting the option to opt-in for law enforcement. If anyone you know might have ancestry connected to that island or the eastern U.S., please tell them about Kenny’s case and encourage them to upload their DNA and opt-in as well.
