On June 19, 2020, 23-year-old Shiand Miller and her 3-year-old daughter Shaniya Miller Gilmore were found fatally shot inside a parked car on the 200 block of Boswell Avenue in Baltimore. Shiand, who was eight months pregnant, was discovered in the driver’s seat; Shaniya was lying on the center console, apparently having tried to crawl toward her mother during the attack.

Police identified 24-year-old Devon Sample as the father of Shiand’s unborn child and said family members reported the couple had been having relationship problems. Investigators reported latent prints and firearms evidence recovered from the victims’ car linked Sample to the scene; he was arrested and charged in connection with the deaths, including two counts of first-degree murder and a count concerning the death of the unborn child.

Anyone who knew Shiand or Shaniya, or who has information about what happened on Boswell Avenue that day, is asked to come forward.
