The Hamilton County Sheriff's Office will help an organization called UCanSpeakForMe by distributing their bookmarkers to inmates and displaying posters of victims of unsolved murders. This is in an effort to help the mother of a murder victim, Daniel "Chaz" Dudley, find clues to her son's unsolved drive-by shooting. She created the organization and bookmarkers in hopes that increased awareness and conversation could generate leads. The Sheriff's Office will distribute the bookmarkers and display the posters in secured areas of their facilities.

MEDIA RELEASE
HELPING UNSOLVED MURDERS
ONE BOOKMARKER AND POSTER AT A TIME
Hamilton County, Ohio, December 26, 2012 – Chief Deputy Sean D. Donovan,
Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office, reports that on December 20, 2012, Ms. Hope Dudley
(www.ucanspeakforme.org) requested a poster displaying photographs and names of victims of
unsolved murdered females be posted at the Hamilton
County Justice Center.
Hope Dudley states that her son, Daniel “Chaz”
Dudley, was the victim of a drive by shooting while being a
passenger in a friend’s vehicle. There were no witnesses
and the driver and other passengers of this vehicle claimed
that they did not see anything. In an attempt to find out
what happened to her son, Ms. Dudley began putting up
flyers and writing letters to bring attention to this crime.
It is because of Chaz’ unsolved murder that Ms.
Dudley created “UCanSpeakForMe Bookmarkers”. She
placed these bookmarkers in churches, libraries, stores, and
local jails hoping that by conversation there would be some
lead to her son’s and other unsolved murders.
In an effort to help Ms. Dudley’s cause, the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office will pass
out “UCanSpeakForMe Bookmarkers” to inmates and display the Unsolved Murder posters on
all floors within the secured areas of Hamilton County Justice Center, Talbert House, and
Reading Road facilities.
