Deshun SkyBaby Cook, a 27-year-old Black man, was shot and killed on the night of November 24, 2018, at the Oak Manor Apartment complex in Monroe, Louisiana. The shooting occurred in common areas of the complex—parking lots, stairwells and doors are mentioned as the setting—and ended with Cook dead before help could change the outcome.

In the days after the killing, investigators named a teenage suspect and sought him on a second-degree murder warrant. Police believed he had left Louisiana; authorities traced him to Joplin, Missouri. Monroe detectives contacted the Joplin Police Department, who located 17-year-old Markeivion Ray Hill near the 1200 block of South Wisconsin and arrested him without incident. He was booked into the Joplin City Jail while the murder charge was pursued across state lines.

Does anyone with memories of that night at Oak Manor or information about Cook’s movements or associates around November 24, 2018 have anything to share?
