Kerica Nelson, a 21-year-old African American woman who was eight months pregnant, was found dead on May 22, 2019, in a park near the Verde Gardens housing complex in Homestead, Florida. Children walking to school discovered her body in an area known locally as the butterfly garden. Her body showed apparent gunshot wounds.

Nelson was a mother of two young children and was expecting her third. Family and neighbors remembered her as loving, devoted to family, and the life of the party. The Miami-Dade Police Department’s Homicide Bureau led the investigation but initially identified no suspects and appealed to the public for tips. No arrests or significant developments have been reported.

What did anyone in the Homestead area see or hear around the butterfly garden on or before May 22, 2019?
