Shantay Nesmith was 28 when she was killed in Orlando, Florida, on November 4, 2022. The shooting occurred inside a home and also claimed the lives of her mother, 49-year-old Gail Baker, her sister, 29-year-old Asha Baker, and a 4-year-old niece, Janice Serrano. Another sister, Sharice Nesmith, survived after being shot in the face and escaped to get help.
According to accounts, the attack followed an argument that began earlier at a club between Asha Baker and her boyfriend, Shavell Jordan Jones. Jones had been asked to leave the house, returned, and opened fire. He attempted to take his own life after the shooting but survived and was arrested. He was charged with multiple counts, including first-degree murder and attempted murder, and faced life imprisonment or the death penalty.
The community rallied to support the family and raise funds for funeral expenses. Does anyone have information about the victims, the night of November 4, 2022, or knew the family and can help investigators or family members?
