Derrick Darrell Barber, 28, was fatally shot on May 11, 2017, in Charleston, South Carolina after what investigators described as a prearranged meeting. When police arrived, two children were found inside Barber’s car; both were physically unharmed. The shooting prompted a rapid investigation and the arrest of two suspects within days.

Twenty-three-year-old K’Sone Campbell of Charleston was arrested and charged with murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime. Nineteen-year-old Demetrius Jamiek Young of North Charleston was also taken into custody on the same charges; Young was already out on bond on an unrelated 2016 case for which he was later convicted of attempted murder and sentenced to ten years. Campbell was convicted of murder and received a 37-year prison sentence; his appeal was unsuccessful. As of late 2017, Young was still awaiting trial on the murder charge while beginning the sentence for the unrelated conviction.

Does anyone have information about Barber’s movements before the May 11 meeting or about witnesses who were at the scene?
