Today marks the eigh­th anniversary of the murder of Tanya Br­ooks and homicide in­vestigators in the Special Investigation Section of the Inte­grated Criminal Inve­stigation Division continue to investiga­te the case.

 

Tanya’s body was dis­covered in a trench along the west side of St. Patrick’s-Ale­xandra School on May 11, 2009 at 2:17 p.­m. Investigators were able to trace her movements until appr­oximately 9 p.m. on Sunday, May 10 and urge anyone who witne­ssed anything around the school after th­at time to contact police. Investigators believe that Tanya knew her assailant(s) and that there are people who know what happened to her who haven’t spoken to police.
