Fate Vincent Winslow was 53 when he was shot and killed in Shreveport, Louisiana, on May 4, 2021.

His case drew attention because of a prior life sentence handed down in 2008 under Louisiana’s habitual offender laws after he sold $20 worth of marijuana to an undercover officer while homeless. He served about 12 years before being resentenced and released from the Louisiana State Penitentiary at Angola in December 2020. Family and advocates had celebrated his release and his plans to reconnect with his children and grandchildren.

The killing cut short that newly regained freedom and prompted widespread reaction from the community and criminal justice reform advocates. If anyone knew Fate Winslow, his routines or the circumstances of the shooting, please share what you know with investigators.
