Jalil Mohammad, 46, a Huntsville father of five and owner of a home improvement company, was shot and killed at his Oakdale Terrace residence on the night of January 16, 2025. Mohammad had just been released from the Madison County Jail after a DUI booking the previous day. Family described him as a family man who was working to improve his life and preparing his oldest son to take over the business.

A dispute between Mohammad and his 25-year-old son, Allen David James Henderson, escalated and Henderson shot his father in front of four of his children. A home security camera captured Mohammad’s final words pleading not to do it in front of his kids. Huntsville police found Mohammad deceased after responding around 10 p.m., and the Madison County Coroner ruled the death a homicide.

Investigators identified Henderson as the suspect; he was arrested, charged with murder and initially held without bond before a $60,000 bond was later set. At a March 5, 2025 preliminary hearing the case was bound over to a Madison County grand jury and was awaiting grand jury proceedings as of March 2025.

Did anyone in the area know the family or have information about what led to the argument that night?
