Nadine Davis-Russell, 61, was fatally shot in the head in her Staten Island apartment on Park Hill Avenue in the early morning of September 21, 2022. Police arrived just before 6 a.m. A 43-year-old male friend who was with her was shot in the shoulder and survived. The surviving victim told investigators the shooting was drug-related, but it remained unclear whether Davis-Russell was involved or an innocent bystander.

Davis-Russell’s youngest son provided Ring doorbell footage that showed a man ringing the doorbell shortly before the shooting; he recognized that man from a Cash App transaction his mother had called about the night before. That evidence led to the arrest of 45-year-old Shaeem Chavis, who lived a few blocks away and was taken into custody at his parole office. Chavis, on lifetime parole for a prior murder conviction, was reportedly in possession of crack cocaine when arrested and was charged with murder, assault, and weapon possession in connection with the killing.

Does anyone have information about the doorbell footage, the Cash App interaction, or other activity on Park Hill Avenue that morning?
