Douglas Barry London, 63, a former PGA golfer living in Lake Wylie, South Carolina, was killed at his home on October 23, 2014, along with his wife, Debbie. The deaths followed an earlier incident in May 2014 at the Pineville mattress store the Londons owned, when three men attempted to rob the business and Douglas defended the store, shooting and wounding one of the robbers, Jamell Cureton.
Cureton and two accomplices, Nana Yaw Adoma and David Lee Fudge, were charged in the attempted robbery. From jail, Cureton allegedly directed a plot to have Douglas and Debbie London killed; Malcolm Jarrell Hartley, known as Bloody Silent, reportedly carried out the shooting at the Londons’ home after being driven there from Charlotte by his girlfriend, 19-year-old Briana Shakeyah Johnson. The couple’s son found their bodies shortly after.
Investigators say evidence from cell searches, phone records and Johnson’s cooperation connected multiple United Blood Nation associates to the conspiracy. The murder weapon was recovered buried near another gang member’s residence. Does anyone have information about the Londons, the Pineville store, or the events leading up to October 23, 2014?
