Latoya Cureton, 27, was found dead behind a vacant home near the 400 block of Green Street in Rock Hill, South Carolina, on the evening of August 5, 2015. An autopsy confirmed she died of multiple gunshot wounds to the back, and the Rock Hill Police Department opened a homicide investigation.

Investigators interviewed neighbors and sought public tips while Cureton’s family organized a Justice for Toya rally and march in late September. In October 2015 police arrested 19-year-old Robert Daquan Johnson and charged him with murder, use of a weapon in a crime and possession of a pistol by a prohibited person; warrants cited scene evidence and witness statements. Prosecutors dropped the murder charge in late December 2015 for lack of sufficient evidence but kept the option to refile; Johnson faced separate federal weapons charges.

The case remained unsolved a year after Cureton’s death and police said they were pursuing new leads. If anyone knew Latoya or has information about what happened that night, please come forward.
