Madison Robinson was 15 when she was shot and killed on the evening of Saturday, August 24, 2019, in Cape Girardeau, Missouri. A sophomore at Cape Senior High School, she was active on the Debate Team and had hoped to become a flight medic. That night a dispute that began earlier as a fistfight between people at a Jefferson Avenue residence and another family escalated; shortly after 10 p.m. gunfire erupted and investigators recovered 22 spent shell casings from two different weapons. Madison was struck in the neck while standing on her front porch; her brother was also shot and survived.

Both were taken to a local hospital, but Madison died of her wounds. Investigators identified Isaiah Lane as a suspect and he was charged in connection with the shooting; those murder charges were dropped in November 2019 by the Cape Girardeau County Prosecuting Attorney, who cited lack of witness cooperation and Madison’s mother said she believed witnesses feared retaliation. The case was later prosecuted again, with further charges filed and a guilty plea entered to second-degree murder and first-degree assault.

Did anyone in Cape Girardeau know Madison or have information about the events on Jefferson Avenue that night?
