Bernard Holmes was shot and killed in Washington, D.C., leaving family and neighbors searching for answers. The Metropolitan Police Department investigated and identified two primary suspects after the killing. A woman and a male associate of hers were arrested and later charged in connection with Holmes’s death. Investigators described a heated dispute and an increasingly contentious relationship between the female suspect and the victim as a possible motive. Prosecutors relied on witness testimony and physical evidence gathered from the scene as the case moved into court.
