Alynia Asiah Lawrence was 17 when she was shot and killed on January 13, 2022, while sitting in a parked car outside a liquor store near Stockton Boulevard and Lindale Drive in Sacramento. The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Office said she was an innocent bystander and not the intended target; the suspects were believed to have been targeting the vehicle she was in.

Investigators worked the case for months. On May 6, 2022, authorities announced arrests of four people: Kenneth Adam White, 19, Carlos Vasquez, 34, and Jesus Manuel Perez, 18, all from Alameda County, and Alize Dnae Trask, 21, from Sacramento County. White and Vasquez were arrested in Oakland and charged with murder, while Perez and Trask faced conspiracy charges. The Sheriff’s Office said there were no outstanding suspects.

Alynia’s family said her death was a senseless loss and urged awareness of youths’ associations. Does anyone have information about Alynia, that location, or what happened that night?
