Camry A. Alonzo, 22, was shot and killed in her Independence, Missouri, apartment in the early morning of May 26, 2020. The killing followed a night of arguing between Alonzo and her boyfriend, Deon D. Sanders. Neighbors reported hearing three bumps followed by three gunshots around 6 a.m., and Alonzo sent a frantic text to a family member pleading for help shortly before the shooting.

Sanders returned to the shared apartment after being out, found the bathroom door locked and—after initially telling police he didn’t know who was behind the door—later admitted he kicked the locked bathroom door and fired through it, striking Alonzo. He then took their infant son to a Kansas City fire station and went to the Kansas City Police Department’s East Patrol Station to confess, placing a gun outside the building. Sanders was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and armed criminal action; he later pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 30 years in prison in August 2022.

If anyone knew Camry, her routines, or the couple’s situation leading up to May 26, 2020, please share what you remember.
