Two local companies, Ron Murphy Construction and High Impact Signs, worked in cooperation with the Nye County Sheriff's Office to heighten public awareness that Valentyna Kram's alleged murderer is still being sought.

Two billboards picturing Jaime Albarran, Kram's alleged killer, were donated by High Impact Signs and can be seen at 1641 Highway 160 and at 800 E. Highway 372. Both locations were donated by Ron Murphy Construction.

A similar 14-by-48-foot sign was donated for use in Las Vegas. According to NCSO, they have also received help in their ongoing effort to find Albarran from national outdoor advertising companies such as Clear Channel Media and Lamar Media, and in Las Vegas by Olympia Outdoor Media.

Kram was killed Dec. 28, 2008, at DC Travel Center, where she worked as a clerk in the convenience store.

Sheriff Tony DeMeo stated his office is continuing to aggressively pursue Albarran and to elicit assistance from other law enforcement agencies throughout the nation. They have also reached out to various media sources.

DeMeo asks anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Albarran to call his office at 751-7000.
