Quintin Fifer was 22 when he was shot dead in the parking lot of the Deluxe Inn on Lamar in Memphis on February 8, 2014. He had arrived at the motel with his fiancée, her two-year-old child, and his brother. Witnesses say Javonte Thomas approached and fired multiple close-range shots that killed Fifer; his family members who were present were not physically harmed.

Investigators described the killing as retaliation. Thomas and two others, including his brother and Darius Love, had allegedly seen Fifer pull into the hotel and carried out the attack. Thomas later said he shot Fifer in revenge for an incident about four months earlier in which he claimed Fifer had shot his brother.

Thomas was convicted of first-degree murder and received an automatic life sentence; Darius Love pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to 20 years. Did anyone who knew Quintin or witnessed the motel parking lot that night come forward with information that helped the case?
