In the late hours of a Thursday night in January 2010, a violent home invasion in the St. Roch neighborhood of New Orleans left three people dead. Inside a shotgun double on Urquhart Street, 23-year-old Desmond Harris was shot in the head and found in the rear yard; his 30-year-old sister, Kewanda Harris, and her partner, Karen Matthews were discovered dead in a bedroom. A fourth woman in the home was critically injured and a toddler in the house was unharmed.

Police responded to a burglary report shortly before midnight on January 7, 2010, and found the front door ajar. Investigators initially suspected the motive was tied to drug activity at the residence. Two men were later charged in connection with the killings; one man pleaded to reduced charges while the other faced trial on murder counts.

Does anyone have information about the house on Urquhart Street or the people who lived there that could help clarify what happened that night?
