Seventeen-year-old Jaylen Thomas was shot and killed on the evening of November 27, 2017, in the parking lot of Harrison Chapel Baptist Church in Springhill, Louisiana. An autopsy found he had been shot eight times, mostly on the left side, with wounds to his upper arm, flank, back and thigh; injuries to his lungs, liver, spleen and gastrointestinal tract produced massive internal bleeding. Forensic analysis indicated the wounds were fired from two different .45 caliber weapons.

Fourteen shell casings and two unfired rounds were recovered at the scene, along with a cell phone near Thomas’s shoulder. Toxicology showed no drugs or alcohol in his system. Court proceedings in the case resulted in at least one conviction; an appeal challenging the admissibility of a statement was filed and the conviction and sentence were affirmed.

Does anyone have information about what happened that night or remembers seeing activity near the church parking lot?
