In the early morning hours of October 11, 2016, 22-year-old Rontavious M. McKinley was shot multiple times and killed during a violent home invasion in Milan, Tennessee. McKinley was at home with his girlfriend when two men forced their way inside and opened fire; his girlfriend was also shot 11 times and survived after multiple surgeries.

Investigators found that one of the attackers, Uel Pearson, had been at the residence earlier that day and had a heated argument with McKinley before leaving. Later that night Pearson returned with a codefendant, Lillo Harrell, both with their faces covered, and the two carried out the shooting. Both men were arrested and prosecuted. Harrell, 34, pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and received a 10-year sentence plus additional time for a probation violation. Pearson, 40, was convicted by a jury of first-degree murder, attempted first-degree murder and employment of a firearm in the commission of a dangerous felony; the judge imposed an automatic life sentence for McKinley’s murder.

Did anyone in Milan at the time see or hear anything that might still help clarify what led to that confrontation earlier that day?
