Marc Carrion, 32, was shot and killed inside a Northeast Philadelphia apartment in the late hours of a September night in 2014. Neighbors reported hearing a disturbance; Charles Jordan, then 41, said he was awakened by noises and armed himself with a licensed revolver. Jordan went to his 20-year-old daughter Brenda’s bedroom and found Carrion crouched in a corner. Jordan held him at gunpoint while calling 911 and, after warning Carrion not to move, fired a single shot when Carrion made a movement. Carrion was taken to a hospital and died of his injuries.

Investigators found conflicting accounts about why Carrion was in the apartment. Brenda Jordan had let him in, and reports alternately described him as having climbed through a window or as someone romantically involved with Brenda. Charles Jordan was arrested and charged with voluntary manslaughter and tried without a jury. The 911 call recording was introduced at trial; Jordan’s defense said he acted in self-defense, and the judge acquitted him after noting Brenda did not tell her father she knew Carrion during the incident.

Anyone who knew Marc Carrion, Brenda Jordan, or who heard or saw anything that night is asked to come forward with information.
