Ulster County Killer Remains At Large

The killer remains a mystery, despite ongoing investigation by the Kingston Police Department and other officials. Police believe several people saw the shooting, but their investigation is being hindered by a lack of witnesses coming forward.

Neither the police nor the DA’s office is revealing if there have been other roadblocks in their investigation.
