Helping To Make Our Community A Safer Place To Live
|
Coquille Valley Crime Stoppers (CVCS) is a local organization comprised of concerned private citizens residing in the local communities surrounding Coquille and Myrtle Point, Oregon to include the North Bend/Coos Bay areas, Bandon and Powers. The organization was developed to assist law enforcement in solving existing and "cold" crimes which are or have been committed within our community. Two of the more prominent cases the CVCS has on the agenda are the Leah Freeman and Jeremy Bright cases. Leah Freeman was a 15 year old teenager from Coquille, Oregon who was murdered in June of 2000. Jeremy Bright was a 14 year old who was reported missing in July of 1986 from the County Fair in Myrtle Point, Oregon. Both cases remain unsolved and are detailed further in the unsolved cases section of this website. |
