Sandra Butler, 37, was killed in a drive-by shooting on a Sunday night in early February 2014 in Independence, Louisiana. Authorities say she was not the intended target and was struck as violence between rival groups escalated from a dispute over rap lyrics into lethal retaliation.

The Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office identified and arrested two men in the days after the shooting. Nineteen-year-old Davontaye Jackson was taken into custody the Monday evening after the incident, and 24-year-old Verdale Anthony Moore of Hammond was arrested the next day. Both were booked on charges of first-degree murder. A third person, 17-year-old Kenneth Johnson, was identified and believed to have fled to the New Orleans area; law enforcement initiated a search for him.

The case centers on how a feud tied to musical lyrics turned deadly and claimed an uninvolved bystander’s life. If anyone knew Sandra, witnessed the shooting, or has information about Kenneth Johnson’s whereabouts, please share what is known.
