Keondra Monique Rosemond was 24 and a mother when she was found dead in her car in Greenville, South Carolina, on the night of April 6, 2015, days before her 25th birthday. Deputies discovered her in the driver’s seat at the Anderson Road Plaza parking lot; she had sustained multiple gunshot wounds to the head, neck, and chest and was pronounced dead at the scene. Her death was ruled a homicide.

Investigators focused on her boyfriend, Obed Jones, after surveillance footage showed a heavyset Black male leave a white vehicle and enter Rosemond’s car that night. Phone records showed the two had been in contact in the hours before the killing. The white vehicle was a rental registered to Rosemond, GPS placed it at Jones’s home, and the car was later found burned. Rosemond had reportedly texted Jones asking for her keys back.

Jones was arrested and charged; the prosecution used the surveillance video and phone records at trial.
