“Our community – and the family of Jerome Allen – deserve to know what happened to him,” the release said. “Somebody knows something!”

As the second anniversary of Allen’s death nears, his family issued a video urging someone to come forward with information about his disappearance.

“This is a difficult situation that no mother should have to go through,” said Catherine Allen, Jerome’s mother in the video. “There are no words to express the pain, the hurt and the suffering that we have been enduring for the past two years.”
