Sam Kyle James, 31, of Houston died of a gunshot wound after a shooting on April 30, 2018, in the parking garage of his apartment complex in the 600 block of Dairy Ashford. The shooting followed a planned LSD drug deal. According to court documents, two men from East Texas — 24-year-old Jace Weeks of Huntington and Devyn Durham — drove from Lufkin to Houston to buy LSD from James. An argument about the price erupted and Weeks admitted to shooting James as James opened the passenger door of the vehicle. Surveillance footage from the apartment complex identified the suspect vehicle, which belonged to a relative of Durham.

Weeks turned himself in and was charged with murder. Durham was arrested and later acquitted of murder charges in June 2023. Weeks pleaded guilty and received a 25-year prison sentence. The family said they felt some relief after the sentence. Does anyone have additional details about the timeline in the garage or the footage that identified the vehicle?
