Jerry Lee Clark Jr., 21, was fatally shot on May 10, 2018, at the Raymonia Apartments in Vidalia, Georgia. The Vidalia Police Department and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation investigated the killing and identified 19-year-old Malique Rheem Harrington Jr. as a suspect. A manhunt followed and ended about a week later when Harrington turned himself in to the Acworth Police Department; he was returned to Toombs County to face charges.

Harrington was charged with felony and malice murder, aggravated assault, a weapons charge, and tampering with evidence. While jailed awaiting trial he was also charged with rioting in a penal institution and unauthorized possession of a weapon by an inmate. In December 2021 a jury found Harrington not guilty of the murder charges but convicted him of aggravated assault, tampering with evidence, and a firearms offense. In February 2022 a judge sentenced him to a total of 25 years in prison; the judge said the case had weighed heavy on his heart.

Did anyone in the Vidalia area witness events at the Raymonia Apartments on or around May 10, 2018, or have information about Jerry’s last known movements?
