Jonquie Antwan Hemphill, 37, was killed on August 5, 2018, in Gastonia, North Carolina, after a backyard barbecue dispute with a cousin escalated into gunfire.

Aaron Woods was charged with second-degree murder; the sentence reported was a minimum of 17 years and a maximum of 21.4 years. Adrian Woods, then 22, was charged with accessory after the fact for driving Aaron away from the scene and told the court he had been threatened with the gun.

Hemphill’s mother, Angela Chambers, spoke in court wearing a shirt bearing his picture and Long Live Jonquie, describing the family’s grief. Are there witnesses or local details from that day that anyone can add to help clarify what happened?
