As the investigation
approaches 15 years, the Richmond Police Department is still seeking
information related to the homicide of Darnell Harris who was found dead
in Stratford Hills.
On Aug. 17, 2003, police were
called to the 7200 block of Berwick Road after receiving a report of a deceased
body in a gray Honda Passport. The individual was Darnell Harris who was
reported missing on July, 17, 2003. He is believed to have died long before his
remains were located.
A self-employed mortgage
broker for his company Innovative Financial Consultants, Harris worked from
home, however he traveled to meet with clients who were looking to refinance or
purchase homes.
“Richmond Police believe they
are close to identifying Harris’ killer and are confident more than one
individual was involved in his death,” said Det. W.E. Thompson. “We believe
some of Mr. Harris’ business dealings may have resulted in his death. However,
we are still seeking any tips for information that can help us solve this
case.”
