A welfare check in August 2021 at a home on the 1400 block of Aisquith Street in Baltimore turned into a homicide investigation when officers found 45-year-old Jason McNair unresponsive and with trauma to his body. McNair was pronounced dead at the scene; initial reports described trauma and later identified the death as a stabbing. No motive was publicly established at the time of the discovery, and the case remained unresolved for more than two years.

Investigators continued the inquiry into McNair’s death. In November 2023 an arrest warrant was issued for 40-year-old Jenita Foster of Baltimore, and she was taken into custody on November 9, 2023; a firearm was recovered at the time of her arrest and charging documents allege first-degree murder and related handgun violations. Court proceedings are scheduled and the prosecution has said it needs additional time to prepare for trial.

If anyone saw activity on Aisquith Street in August 2021 or has information about Jason McNair, please come forward.
