Marlon D. Hill, 27, was shot and killed on December 6, 2015, after an argument at a Kansas City home on the 2200 block of East 85th Street. According to witness statements, Hill and his girlfriend stepped outside to continue their dispute when a visitor, Brandon M. Johnson, exited as well, armed with a gun. Witnesses said Johnson pointed the firearm at Hill, fired, and first responders later found Hill on the ground with gunshot wounds; he was taken to Research Medical Center and died there.

Court filings from October 2016 formally charged Brandon M. Johnson with second-degree murder and armed criminal action; prosecutors sought a cash-only bond of $300,000 and relied on witness accounts that place Johnson at the scene and describe him following the couple outside and shooting Hill.
