In 1983 Brooklyn mechanic Godfrey Agius was fatally stabbed by a home intruder. His body was discovered by a mailman, evidence was recovered from the scene, and well, that was that. Even though the case remains unsolved, Godfrey's brother Reginald Agius has visited the 69th Precinct stationhouse every few months to check on the investigation. But on December 22nd, he was told that police had thrown out all evidence of the case 15 years ago. Reginald Agius told the Daily News, "What right does the Police Department have to throw away evidence on a murder case? They know murder cases are never closed. There's no statute of limitations....I want justice."

Evidence included a bloody hat, a knife, a cigarette butt and a partial fingerprint all recovered at the scene. However, the NYPD doesn't seem to be talking. They declined comment to the Daily News, and Police Commissioner Ray Kelly has yet to respond to a letter Reginald Agius wrote after learning the evidence was tossed. He wrote, "Give me an answer how this could have happened with all my heart I would appreciate it thank you." Reginald is now offering a $5,000 reward to anyone with information on his brother's killer.
