Parris Hummons was 19 when she was shot and killed on April 16, 2016, while visiting a friend in Cincinnati’s Bond Hill neighborhood. She was a nursing student at Wright State University and was in a car on Dale Street when someone opened fire; she was later pronounced dead at the University of Cincinnati Medical Center.

Two men, John Sanders, 21, and Robert Carpenter, 19, were arrested and charged with murder. Court documents say Carpenter admitted to firing the shots and said he was seeking revenge for an earlier fight that day, while Sanders was driving the car. Both pleaded guilty and received prison terms: Sanders 20 years to life, Carpenter 28 years to life.

The family has kept her memory alive; her grandmother Shirley Rosell brought Hummons’ American Dream paper to court and a memorial scholarship at Wright State University was established in her name.
