On a September evening in 2020, 19-year-old Dontavious Young was shot on Cherry Wood Drive in Stone Mountain, Georgia, and later died at a local hospital. Stone Mountain police arrived after numerous 911 calls and found Young lying face down in the road with an empty holster beside him. An autopsy recorded that he had been shot 13 times.

Near the scene officers encountered 36-year-old Trillian Haile standing in front of a house with two handguns on the ground, one of which belonged to Young. Haile told detectives he did not know Young and claimed he acted in self-defense, saying Young approached him and attempted an armed robbery, that a shootout ensued, and that he continued firing after Young fell and apologized.

A DeKalb County jury found Haile guilty of voluntary manslaughter, aggravated assault, and possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony in March 2024, and a judge sentenced Haile in April 2024 to 25 years, with 20 years to be served in confinement and five years on probation. Does anyone have memories of Cherry Wood Drive that night or information about Dontavious Young that could shed light on what happened?
