Christina Ra’e Hobbs, 26, was found dead from a gunshot wound in her apartment at the Florida Vista Condominiums on Florida Boulevard in Baton Rouge on December 26, 2022. Authorities initially classified the death as a suicide and the case remained inactive for months.

The investigation reopened after a second body was discovered at the same unit on July 3, 2023. That victim, 42-year-old Rachel Johnson, had been beaten to death and her death was ruled a homicide. Detectives determined both women knew 35-year-old Cedrick Demond Lang and were friends with each other. New evidence developed while investigating Johnson’s murder led police to reclassify Hobbs’s shooting as a homicide and to charge Lang with second-degree murder in both deaths plus obstruction of justice for allegedly removing a firearm from Christina’s shooting scene.

Does anyone have information about Hobbs, her activities in late 2022, or her acquaintances who might help clarify what happened?
