On November 11, 2006, Reina Natosha Lynch, a 26-year-old security guard from Silver Spring, Maryland, was found dead inside a locked guard shack at a FedEx facility in Beltsville. She had suffered fatal shotgun wounds to her head and chest; there were no signs of robbery or a struggle at the scene. Her seven-year-old daughter was left without a mother.

Investigators focused on Reina’s former partner and the child’s father, Fabian Shim, after a 911 call the day after the body was discovered. Shim’s then-girlfriend reported he had confessed to the killing and gave details about the location of the car and the shotgun used. Shim was convicted of first- and second-degree murder in 2007, that verdict was later overturned by the Court of Special Appeals because of an error in jury selection, and a new trial led to another guilty verdict in 2013 with a life sentence.

Are there details from the Beltsville area or from 2006 that anyone remembers which might shed further light on this case?
