Audrey Bryant, 48, was shot to death in her Fort Washington, Maryland, home in the early hours of May 26, 2009. Her boyfriend, 44-year-old Keith Jordan, was also shot; Jordan called 911 shortly after 1 a.m., but later died at a hospital. Bryant was found in a bedroom with multiple gunshot wounds to her upper body. There were no signs of forced entry or robbery at the residence on the 4000 block of Oaklawn Road, where the couple had lived for more than a decade with Bryant’s four sons.

Investigators connected the double homicide to an earlier fatal shooting around 12:30 a.m. that same night in Washington, D.C., in which 25-year-old Carl Ashton O’Neil Gray Fitzgerald, a friend of Bryant’s sons, was killed near the Pure nightclub. Police described the attack on Bryant and Jordan as a targeted assassination and issued lookouts for vehicles; a vehicle matching descriptions was recovered and processed for evidence. The family has said they believe a family friend was responsible and criticized the pace of the investigation. If anyone knew Audrey, Keith, or Fitzgerald or has information about either shooting, please come forward.
