Remember Thomas Altman?

“Not every article resulted in a closed [homicide] case, but each one gave
voice to those who had only known
silence for years.”

Next Thursday, March 22nd, will be two years since Thomas Altman was brutally attacked in the City of Lake Worth, right near the Downtown.

Three days later he died. The case remains unsolved.

Tomorrow would be the perfect day for The Palm Beach Post to publicize this cold case homicide.

Since the City of Lake Worth is featured every week in the print edition — every Monday on the ‘Local’ page B3 — instead of publishing a long list of phone numbers, the same ones every week (like the editors at the Post have done for the past two years, e.g., for the parks dept. and code enforcement) instead use that space in the paper tomorrow to get the word out about Thomas Altman’s murder two years ago. Why?

Someone, somebody, may have that “one small tip”.

In the time since Altman’s murder someone may have overheard something at a bar or in a church downtown? Maybe someone wants to come forward but is afraid of retribution?


Learn below how to anonymously provide that
“one small tip” and solve this murder.
And maybe every day thereafter this week another cold case could be revisited in the Post for those who have “only known silence for years” in other cities, towns and villages here in Palm Beach County.

Mr. Thomas Altman was brutally attacked along North ‘L’ St. near 5th Ave. North on March 22nd, 2016 in the City of Lake Worth. On Friday, March 25th, 2016 Thomas Altman died. His killer has never been found.

Here is an excerpt from an article in The Palm Beach Post a year after the murder, datelined March 28th, 2017:

     Altman was found unresponsive in a Lake Worth neighborhood on the 400 block of North L Street on March 22, 2016, after what appeared to be a severe altercation. Days after he was found, he died in the hospital, according to investigators. Since then, there have been no suspects in the fatal assault.


On March 25th this year it will be two years since Thomas Altman passed away.

Somebody saw something.
Somebody has that “one small tip”.

The murder of Thomas Altman is not the only unsolved
murder case here in the City of Lake Worth.
The media too can help solve cold case homicides but they have to be motivated to get involved. Learn how. Click on this link for more about this quote:
