Ebony DeWitt was a 20-year-old Black woman from Prince George’s County, Maryland, who was found dead along with her mother, Delores DeWitt, after firefighters extinguished a burning car in Largo in the early morning of March 16, 2009. The vehicle had been reported stolen and was driven a few blocks before being abandoned and set on fire; both women’s bodies were inside when the flames were put out. Reports described the killings as strangulations rather than deaths caused by the fire.

Investigators linked the scene to a preceding burglary and to a series of violent incidents in the neighborhood, including another nearby mother-and-daughter killing earlier that year. A Prince George’s County man, Jason Thomas Scott, was later indicted in July 2010 on murder and burglary counts in the DeWitts’ deaths; authorities also signaled he was suspected in the earlier mother-and-daughter killing. In September 2013 Scott entered an Alford plea in the DeWitt case and received two life sentences with all but 85 years suspended.

Did anyone in the Largo area see suspicious activity around March 16, 2009, or know the DeWitts’ movements that night?
