Keshon Kerns, 18, was fatally shot in the late hours of May 20, 2017, and found the next morning in the driveway/carport of his grandfather’s home on Harvest Hills Court in Decatur, Georgia. He was a student and lacrosse player at Southwest DeKalb High School and had a twin sister. The grandfather discovered Keshon with gunshot wounds to his wrist, shoulder, and back.

Family members who lived at the home, including 20-year-old cousin Jamal Rashad Kerns, initially said they had been at a hookah bar that night and didn’t see anything in the darkened driveway. On June 6, 2017, Jamal shot a friend, Malik Golar, during a confrontation about Keshon’s killing; Golar survived and identified Jamal. Jamal then led investigators to a gun hidden in a shoebox in the grandfather’s car and confessed to killing Keshon, saying he had taken the gun and shot him.

Does anyone have further information about Keshon’s last hours or the household where he lived?
