In spring 2014, 17-year-old Alexis Malone was killed in Decatur, Georgia. Her body was found on Agape Way on May 10, 2014. Investigators say she had been lured to a park and was killed because she had witnessed a separate murder at a party on May 3. The cause of death was multiple gunshot wounds and blunt force trauma to the face from a brick.

Police identified four people in connection with Malone’s killing: Oslusha Smith, Cutrez Johnson, Kemontay Cullins, and Kayla Dixon. Authorities allege Dixon convinced Malone to go to the park with Smith, Johnson, and Cullins because they intended to silence her about the earlier killing of Michael Phillips. The crime was tied to the Bloods street gang.

Subsequent prosecutions produced several convictions and plea agreements for those charged. The case also sparked retaliatory violence: a later home invasion connected to the events resulted in the death of a 9-month-old boy and critical injuries to three women.

If anyone knew Alexis, was at the May 3 party, or has information about the killings or the retaliation, please come forward.
