By all accounts Cyle VanKomen was more than just a good kid.\xa0 He was the kind of young man that drew others to him.\xa0 Kind, friendly and generous to a fault, the 24 year-old lived with his older brother and several other young men in what was known as a \u201cparty house\u201d in a quiet neighborhood in South Ogden Utah.\xa0\xa0Neither Cyle, his brother nor anyone else in the house had any known enemies or connection to any criminal activity.\xa0 He and his roommates lived simply \u2013 none of them were wealthy or had much in the way of valuable belonging \u2013 least of all Cyle.\xa0\xa0So it defies belief that on the night of December 9, 2016 \u2013 when Cyle\u2019s brother and another roommate left the house to buy some snacks to take with them to go bowling \u2013 that one of the most bizarre home invasions ever committed took place \u2013 leaving Cyle and his neighbor Kevin Nelson dead and a third remaining victim critically wounded.\xa0\xa0And it all happened in the span of ten minutes \u2013 the time it took for Cyle\u2019s brother and his friend to walk to the store and back\xa0 But it all gets weirder and worse.\xa0\xa0And that\u2019s because the other murder victim \u2013 next door neighbor Kevin Nelson \u2013 who just happened to be the wrong place at the wrong time \u2013 had security cameras installed on the side of his house.\xa0 And those cameras caught and recorded \u2013 for more than an hour before the assault \u2013 three masked, armed men surrounding the perimeter of the VanKomen house\u2026peering in windows\u2026jumping fences\u2026running what looked like paramilitary drills.\xa0\xa0Ski masks cover their faces, but the body images of all three attackers \u2013 including one very tall man \u2013 are clearly visible in the video footage.\xa0\xa0So why hasn\u2019t this case been solved?\xa0 With Kevin Nelson\u2019s security camera video now available for public viewing, is it really possible that no one can identify even one of the perpetrators of this horrific crime?\xa0\xa0Listen as Melissa details the known facts of this tragically unsolved case, and wonders aloud why some law enforcement agencies that continually ask the public for help don\u2019t actually seem to want it even when it\u2019s offered up on a silver platter\u2026
