Detectives are still searching for Solomon Robinson’s, a South Bronx military success story, killers after he was brutally murdered in 1998.Solomon Robinson had done everything right. The Bronx native had shunned gang violence and joined the military in search of a better life.
At around 10 p.m. that night, he cut through St. Mary’s Park on 145th Street and Jackson Avenue, en route to a local store, when no fewer than two suspects attacked him. Police and family said that Robinson not only lived a clean life but also actively pushed away negative influences. Instead, he strived to focus on playing his beloved sports and looking to go to college through military service.
Although Robinson and Klein never met, the pair share some startling similarities. Both men were not only in the military, but they were also in boot camp at the exact same time, which has only deepened Klein’s need to solve the mystery once and for all. In an attempt to motivate those who saw something that fateful night to come forward, both the FBI and the NYPD have raised the reward money to $20,000.
