What happened to Kevin Collins?

Donation protected
This month marks the 40th anniversary of Kevin Collins' disappearance from a bus stop in the Haight/Ashbury area of San Francisco in February 1984. He became one of the first missing children to appear on milk cartons, igniting a nationwide search that even landed him on the cover of Newsweek magazine.

Despite years passing and the case going cold, the pursuit for answers never ceased. In 2013, hope was reignited when the case was reopened, and Dan Therrien was named as a prime suspect. However, Therrien had passed away in 2008, leaving investigators with unanswered questions.

One crucial lead pointed to Therrien's partner, Jack Chow, who fled to Canada following Therrien's death. Although police attempted to speak with Chow, he provided no significant information and even failed a polygraph test regarding Kevin's disappearance.

The San Francisco Police Department still considers Kevin's case active, so they are unwilling to disclose Chow's current whereabouts. The Collins family remains in limbo, desperate for closure and the truth about what happened to their beloved Kevin.

Now, we're reaching out for your support to help provide crucial financial resources for our private investigators in Vancouver, as well as cover potential travel costs for the production team in the USA heading to Canada to film. Time is of the essence, and we must locate Chow before it's too late. Together, let's bring justice to Kevin and closure to his family. #FindJackChow #KevinCollins #ColdCase #PrivateInvestigation #JusticeForKevin
