Shortly after 8:39 p.m. on Tuesday, February 9, 2016, a burst of gunfire in the unit block of M Street NW in the NoMa neighborhood of Washington, D.C., left 28-year-old Jamar Morris unconscious with a gunshot wound. Emergency responders transported Morris to a local hospital, where he was pronounced dead. He was a resident of Northwest D.C.

Investigators worked the killing for more than a year. In October 2017, 24-year-old Stephon Marquis Williams of Oxon Hill, Maryland, was arrested and charged with second-degree murder while armed; he was already jailed on an unrelated September 2016 gun charge and was held without bail. Prosecutors later said they had difficulty locating witnesses, and after multiple extensions the grand jury did not return an indictment. In August 2018 a judge ordered Williams released on his own recognizance, and on October 17, 2018, a D.C. Superior Court judge dismissed the case when prosecutors said they were not confident an indictment could be obtained even after locating a witness.

Are there witnesses or neighbors who remember the night of the shooting or saw Jamar Morris in NoMa before February 9, 2016?
