Joshua Parmer Billingsley was 26 when he was found fatally shot in the early morning of June 28, 2013. Officers discovered the Black man at about 5:20 a.m. in the 900 block of Bennett Place in Baltimore; he had sustained multiple gunshot wounds to his head and chest and was pronounced dead at the scene.

Jason had reportedly been involved in an assault days before the shooting, and Joshua’s death is believed to have been retaliation for that incident. Jason was arrested on the day of Joshua’s burial for the assault alleged to have precipitated the murder, not for the homicide itself.

Public details do not identify who fired the shots or note any arrests or convictions directly for Joshua’s killing. If anyone knew Joshua, Jason, or has information about what happened on Bennett Place that morning, please share what can help resolve this case.
