Chari McCline was 14 when she was killed in Oakland, California, on September 1, 1987. She returned home unexpectedly and interrupted a burglary in progress at her stepfather’s apartment. The person committing the burglary was her 18-year-old stepbrother Ernest Morgan, who shot and killed Chari after being discovered.

Ernest Morgan was arrested and later convicted of second-degree murder. He received a sentence of 15 years to life. The case drew attention because it involved members of the same household and ended in a young girl’s death.

What does anyone who knew Chari or the family remember about that day or the people involved?
