Londyn Unique Samuels, a 1-year-old African American girl, was killed on the evening of August 29, 2013, in New Orleans’ Central City neighborhood. She was being carried by her 18-year-old babysitter when gunfire erupted; a bullet that passed through the babysitter struck Londyn in the chest and killed her. Londyn’s mother was at work at a non-profit café that promoted anti-violence when the shooting occurred.

The New Orleans Police Department, aided by its SWAT team, investigated and reviewed grainy surveillance footage that identified two men as persons of interest. Crimestoppers offered a $5,000 reward for information leading to an arrest and indictment. Two men, Darnell Ramee and Keelen Armstrong, were arrested in the aftermath of the shooting. In November 2017 Ramee, then 24, pleaded guilty to manslaughter in Londyn’s death and to attempted second-degree murder for wounding the babysitter and received concurrent 40-year terms; shortly before that, 29-year-old Armstrong pleaded guilty to reduced charges of accessory to second-degree murder and accessory to attempted second-degree murder.

Does anyone have information about the shooting or knew Londyn and her family that could help clarify what happened that night?
