Late on August 28, 2020, the Fairview Inn and Suites in Memphis was the scene of a double homicide. Waquel Richardson, 31, was found in the motel lobby with multiple gunshot wounds and pronounced dead at the scene. Nearby, 26-year-old Ashley Carter was found fatally shot in a parked Nissan Maxima and also pronounced dead at the scene; Carter was the daughter of Crunchy Black of Three 6 Mafia.

Authorities identified a single suspect, Lamont Murry, who was found hiding in an attic at a residence where the getaway vehicle, a gold Chevrolet Tahoe with a distinctive rear bumper, had been located. Murry confessed during questioning and said the shootings were retaliation for an August 14, 2020 double homicide. He was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and tampering with evidence, but the case was dismissed in October 2020 for lack of evidence and later presented to a grand jury, which indicted him on the original charges.

Are there witnesses or local details about that night that could help clarify what happened?
