Cherish Smith, 23, was killed in a domestic incident at her McHugh Road home in Baker, Louisiana, in February 2018. Smith and her partner were raising two children and had recently welcomed their second child. The fatal wound occurred when her partner, Rhykem Rogers, fired a semi-automatic handgun after releasing a pit bull from the backyard during an argument; Rogers fired four or five rounds at the dog and a bullet struck Smith in the stomach, killing her.

Rogers was arrested in connection with Smith’s death. According to reporting, Rogers and Smith had been planning to get married and his attorney described him as remorseful. What information can anyone with knowledge of the household or the evening of the shooting share?
