Michael Titus was a 19-year-old African American male who died of a gunshot wound to the head on July 1, 2017, in Dallas, Texas, the Dallas County Medical Examiner determined. His body was found in an abandoned house in Oak Cliff alongside 13-year-old Shavon Randle. Both deaths were tied to a drug dispute and the scene was reported as highly decomposed and disturbing.

Family members said Michael had been drawn into the local drug scene as a minor player and had been coerced by individuals named in reports, including Darius Fields and Devontae Owens, to stand guard over a large marijuana stash. After that stash was stolen, Michael was blamed, abducted and killed; court documents say his body was staged to appear as a suicide. The probe expanded when Darius Fields, Laquon Wilkerson, Devontae Owens and Desmond Jones were charged with felony engaging in organized criminal activity in connection with the kidnappings and murders.

What information do readers have about Michael’s movements in Oak Cliff around late June 2017 or about the people named in the indictments?
