In hope that a collaborative Web effort can FINALLY bring justice and resolution to the 2012 murder of Univ. of N. Carolina coed Faith Hedgepeth.

ALSO, because of the heavy suspicion usually directed toward Karena Rosario, I'll leave a permanent link to this longish "Defense" of Karena that has been offered by a reader:

Nothing New
Nothing... at... all. :-( Everytime I re-read the documents and reportage on this case I find some little bit I've missed before, leading to more thinking and a few more google searches, but each time I come away gleaning less than the time before. If I'm gleaning anything, it's more uncertainty. While I personally still believe the killer(s) came from The Thrill night club that fateful early morning, I am less certain he/they is among those mentioned in released documents (though still certainly could be). And yeah, there are plenty of other, completely different scenarios, as well.
The more I look at this and other cases, the more depressing it is how many major crimes go unsolved... or even when there are solutions, it is less than clear if the correct perp is apprehended. Very depressing (unlike the 1-hour cop dramas that have nice, tidy wrap-ups within 60 mins., perhaps even most major crimes go unsolved in this country). And each time I read through Faith's case now, it's 2-3 weeks minimum before I can bring myself to read through it again. The viciousness... the senselessness... and the incomprehensibility of no resolution after 2+ years.
Despite frequent police protestations to the contrary this has all the appearance of a cold case for law enforcement. Some one of us in the public must find the bit, the clue, the break, the connection, the comment, the untold secret, that will ignite a match under this case; that will shine a light where light hasn't shone before.
I still have hope and confidence that Faith's killer will be found... for one thing whoever did this will undoubtedly (and likely already has) commit other crimes; their fingerprints, DNA, or other connections back to Faith's murder will eventually show up on some screen somewhere. It is a matter of time. Here's hoping that all of Faith's friends and family are around long enough to see it happen.
