LRPD MAKES LITTLE PROGRESS IN SOLVING TRIPLE HOMICIDE - RELEASES STATEMENT AFTER OUR REQUEST FOR INFORMATION

A MONTH LATER AND LRPD HAS MADE LITTLE PROGRESS IN SOLVING TRIPLE HOMICIDE

Other than two trips to Chicago to speak with a person of interest being held on unrelated charges in the Cook County jail, Little Rock Police have made little progress in solving the December 5th murders of Moriah Cunningham and two of her children, A'laylaih and Elijah Fisher. 

On December 30th, we sent this request for comments to last term mayor Mark Stodola: 




As usual, Stodola refused to reply.  

We also sent a FOI request for travel reimbursement for LRPD officers for the month of December and the records reveal that detectives made two trips to Chicago. 

You can view the documents LRPD provided by clicking here.  

Detectives Terry McDaniel and Matthew Hoffine traveled there on December 8th and McDaniel traveled there again on December 19th.

McDaniel is known for his use of deadly force on two occasions. You can read about those incidents by clicking here and here

After our request for comments from Stodola and the travel records from LRPD,
LRPD released a statement confirming that detectives had been to Chicago to talk with a "person of interest".

Back in December, after activists and community leaders held a prayer vigil and city leaders were blasted for lack of concern. 

Then when city leadership chose to watch the launching of the U.S.S. Little Rock at the Ron Robinson Theater instead of attending the funeral for the murdered family, city leaders were blasted again.


To show that they cared, the reward for information leading to an arrest and conviction was increased to $50,000 from the standard $10,000. 

Community leaders banned together to plea for witnesses to step up and provide information to LRPD. Again city leadership was nowhere to be found.




As community leaders and activist have stated, would these murders not have been solved by now if they had occurred in West Little Rock or the victims had been white?

Those are good questions and ones that need to be discussed.

  A video of a part-time Dover, AR city marshal threatening a local business that went viral on social media, resulted in his termination of employment on October 1st.   Here's the video. Apparently Jones was the subject of rumors in the town. Rumors about meth pipes and the 479 Smoke Shop.   According to records obtained from the Arkansas Commission on Law Enforcement Standards & Training ("CLEST"), Jones previously worked part-time for the Dover Marshal's Office from October 26, 2007 through January 2, 2009.   Jones was also elected in 2023 as the Martin Township Constable and held that position under he lost to Ricky "Perch" Parks in 2025.   Don't worry about Jones losing his part-time job. As his campaign literature detailed, he owns a couple of businesses in area. During our investigation of Jones for this story, we found that he had been accused of exploiting Daniel L. Koester, 64 years old, who had cancer and had been in hospice after sufferin...

LRSD investigation file of Kendahl Davenport's entanglement with student leaves more questions than answers

An "unprofessional" relationship between a Parkview student, Justin Lanier and a teacher Kendahl Davenport was the talk of the town this week  ________ We were contacted by a LRSD employee/whistleblower over the weekend and broke this story on April 13, 2026 at 7:43 a.m. Other media outlets saw our post and scrambled to catch up. Our post about this on social media and other news outlet regurgitating it sent LRSD into a tailspin and the superintendent issued a statement. LRSD attempted to spin the story with little success. We submitted AFOIA requests to LRSD for copies of personnel files and records regarding applicants for the position that Davenport was hired to fill. Other news outlets continued to post stories. And they specifically referenced our April 13th social media post that broke the story and indicated that it going viral was problematic for the school district. Unrelenting pressure on LRSD from news media and citizens forced the superintendent to issue another s...
