Alexander Michel Odeh

On October 11, 1985, Alexander Michel Odeh was killed when a bomb exploded at the office of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) at 1905 East 17th Street in Santa Ana, California. Odeh was the Western Regional Director of ADC. In addition to killing Odeh, the bomb injured several other people and caused massive damage to the building.

More than two decades later, Odeh’s murder continues to be an active, ongoing priority investigation of the FBI. We are offering a $1 million dollar reward for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for the murder.

Despite intensive investigative efforts, the U.S. government has been unable to develop sufficient evidence to charge anyone with this crime. But we in the FBI remain committed to pursuing this priority investigation until all who may have been involved are brought to justice.

Please help. If you have any information on this case, please contact your local FBI field office or submit a tip electronically.
