Anthony Domonique Lennon, 24, was killed on June 23, 2017, in Raleigh, North Carolina. Lennon, a former East Carolina University defensive back who played in 35 career games from 2011 to 2015, was found in the parking lot of the Bahama Breeze restaurant on Wake Forest Road. The autopsy listed the cause of death as multiple gunshot wounds; he sustained 19 gunshot wounds, including 13 to the torso, with additional wounds to the neck, limbs, and right leg. The medical examiner noted that two wounds may have been caused by the same bullet passing through the body twice.

Investigators say Lennon was likely targeted in retaliation after a drug shipment intended for street sales was intercepted. A woman hired by Lennon was attempting to transport 30 pounds of marijuana on an Amtrak train to North Carolina when the drugs were seized. Several people have been charged in connection with the killing: Ashanti Rahdee Bennet, 33, of Greenville, pled guilty to second-degree murder and received a negotiated sentence of 13 to 17 years; Jamar Vick Allen, Clifton Jason Spellman, and Wantavius Burney Jackson were charged with felony conspiracy to commit murder; and Stephanie Owens was charged with accessory after the fact to murder. Lennon is mourned by family, friends, former teammates and the ECU community, who have set up a GoFundMe to support his family and a college fund for his son.

Did anyone in the Raleigh or ECU communities have information about Lennon’s activities in the days before June 23, 2017?
