Seek Justice for Devon Hoover of Detroit, MI

Donation protected
Update: With a heartfelt thank you to the dozens of generous donors at every level online and several checks hand delivered to reward fund organizers-we have exceeded our $20,000 reward fund goal. This page will stay active for a few more days for anyone who wants to give a symbolic gesture in the name of justice for Devon Hoover - $1 or a few. All excess proceeds over $20,000 will be split between Detroit Opera and Fraternite de Notre Dame.

As for the $20,000 reward, we hope this will motivate the right person with the information the police need to come forward with the leads necessary to help arrest and prosecute the killer(s). We are working with Crimestoppers to publicize the increased reward very soon. Thank you, thank you, for sharing your kindness and generous spirit.

Details:

Sometime during the weekend of April 21, 2023, Dr. Devon Hoover was murdered, his body discarded in his own home. Police discovered the body after Devon’s family requested a welfare check. They have not yet charged a suspect. The family and friends of Devon want to help bring justice by raising a $20,000 reward for the first person who comes forward to the Detroit police or Crimestoppers with a tip leading to the arrest and prosecution of a suspect in this murder case.

Dr. Hoover was a revered neurosurgeon with a successful practice in Detroit, Michigan. A well-loved and kind brother to six sisters, an uncle and great uncle, and the only and beloved son to his parents, Devon was a pillar in his neighborhood community and a dear friend to many. He was well-known as a generous, compassionate man. He hosted neighborhood Christmas parties, invested in the Detroit Opera by serving on the board, and touched the lives of his patients with both surgical skill and uncommon kindness.

All funds raised up to the goal of $20,000 will be turned over to Crimestoppers to handle the reward process. After one year, if no qualifying tip has been received, the reward money will be donated to the Detroit Opera (www.detroitopera.org) and Fraternite Notre Dame (www.fraternitenotredame.org), two organizations Devon loved and supported.

Any donations above the $20,000 goal will be donated equally to the organizations mentioned above.

Help us find justice for Dr. Hoover with your donation. Thank you!
