In May 2016 in Louisville, Kentucky, 16-year-old Maurice Gordon was murdered after he and his 14-year-old brother, Larry Ordway, witnessed the fatal shooting of 40-year-old Christopher Jones. According to testimony described in court proceedings, the shooter, an acquaintance named Brice Rhodes, lured the brothers to his home out of fear they would identify him.

Inside the residence the two boys were tied up and subjected to violence. Testimony from a 15-year-old present, Anjuan Carter, says Rhodes directed the attack; Maurice was stabbed multiple times after being forced to beg for his life, and Larry was then also stabbed to death. The brothers’ bodies were placed in containers, taken to an abandoned property, and set on fire.

Louisville Metro Police arrested Brice Rhodes and three teenagers, Anjuan Carter, Jacorey Lamont Taylor, and Tieren Coleman. Carter, Taylor, and Coleman later accepted plea deals and agreed to testify against Rhodes; Anjuan Carter pleaded guilty to facilitation of murder and tampering with physical evidence.

If anyone knew Maurice or Larry, or has information about the events in May 2016, please share what you remember.
