Keithan Joran Hillman, 40, was shot to death at his Buckhead apartment complex on Peachtree Park Drive NE in Atlanta on February 15, 2020. Known to friends as KeJo, Hillman was a Clark Atlanta University graduate who finished at the top of his class with a degree in mechanical engineering and worked as a mechanical engineer and brand consultant.

Police say an argument with another man at Hillman’s residence escalated and he was shot multiple times shortly after 1 p.m.; emergency medical services pronounced him dead at the scene. Investigators identified 29-year-old Michael Miata, a law student from New York, as a suspect. Witnesses reported Miata fled in a Ford sedan with California plates; the NYPD fugitive task force arrested him in Queens on February 19, 2020, and Atlanta authorities charged him with felony murder and began extradition procedures.

Many questions remain about what sparked the argument and the legal outcome. If anyone knew Hillman, saw him that day, or has information about the dispute, please share what you know.
