Leandrea Maria Sampson, 39, was found dead inside a burning car in the 4900 block of North Franklintown Road in Baltimore in the early morning hours of October 24, 2021. Investigators determined she had been shot before the vehicle was set on fire, and her death was investigated as a homicide.

Police identified Jermaine Jeter as a suspect and charged him with first-degree murder, first-degree malicious burning, second-degree arson and weapons offenses. Prosecutors presented cell phone records and surveillance footage they said placed Jeter and Sampson together in the hours before her death. The defense argued the investigation was inadequate and that other possible suspects had not been fully pursued.

Jeter went to trial; after six days the jury returned a verdict of not guilty on all counts in April 2023. The violent death of Leandrea Maria Sampson remains unsolved. Does anyone have information about Sampson’s last known movements or who she spent time with on October 23–24, 2021?
