Cold Case Spotlight

Alonzo Thomas IV, 20, had just taken a phone call outside a house on Wayne Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri on April 5, 2014 when shots rang out. Alonzo, or “Zoe” as some called him, was seen by witnesses speaking to individuals in a white van or truck with a sliding passenger door and rusted rims before being shot. Alonzo made it to the front door of a residence where he knocked for help, collapsed and died. The shooting took place at 1:00pm, but despite it happening in the middle of the day and there being witnesses, no arrests have been made. Alonzo had two children, one that had not yet been born, when he was murdered. Their lives will forever be impacted by the violence that stole their father. Alonzo’s mom, Monique Willis, channeled her grief into advocacy and stated a nonprofit to help other families affected by violence in the Kansas City Area. Momma on Mission, Inc. was organized to help families by providing emotional and community support while seeking legal justice. Monique also shared her story in the book Grief Diaries: Project Cold Case. “As of April 5, 2014, my life changed forever. My emotional and mental state may never be the same again.” – Monique Willis.
