Deago Levell Brown, 17, was killed on the evening of April 3, 2017, in the Binghampton neighborhood of Memphis. He was standing outside a corner store in the 300 block of Tillman, holding a bag of chips, when a single gunshot to the head ended his life. The killing was described as gang-related and alarmed residents who feared retaliation.

Brown was an artist who had recently reconnected with the Carpenter Art Garden, a community center for local youth. The investigation identified Teriyona Winton as a suspect. Investigators say Winton, then 15, walked up to Brown and shot him once in the head; Winton was later indicted in January 2018 on first-degree murder charges and the case was handled by the Multi-Agency Gang Prosecution Unit.

What information or leads do readers from the Binghampton area remember about that night or about Deago’s activities at the Carpenter Art Garden?
