On November 9, 2017, 16-year-old Kaliah Dearing of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, was found fatally shot in her Logan Street home alongside her 24-year-old stepsister, Natasha Harner. Police were first called for what was reported as a medical emergency before discovering the double homicide; a third sister was in the house during the attack. Friends and family remembered Kaliah as a sweet, caring student who worked at a local McDonald’s and aspired to a career in music.

After a week with no arrests and a community vigil demanding answers, an acquaintance of the sisters, Jeremiah Battle, was arrested on November 16, 2017 and charged with two counts of first-degree murder, burglary, and tampering with evidence. Reports say Battle broke into the home and shot both women following an argument reportedly over a broken windshield wiper on his vehicle. In June 2018 Battle pleaded guilty and received two consecutive life terms plus additional prison time for burglary and tampering.

If anyone knew Kaliah, Natasha, or saw activity on Logan Street on November 9, 2017, please share what you remember.
