On the night of March 10, 1988, 36-year-old Montgomery County deputy sheriff Isaiah Donald Harris was killed by a shotgun blast to the head while stopped at a Troy Highway stop sign near Cherry Hill Road as he drove to his night shift. His car drifted across the highway and was found in a ditch by passersby.

Investigators say the killing was the result of a conspiracy by Harris’s wife, Louise Harris, and her lover Lorenzo McCarter, who allegedly sought to collect on substantial life insurance policies. McCarter recruited Michael Anthony Sockwell and Alex Hood; Sockwell is reported to have waited near the subdivision entrance and fired the fatal shot, then discarded the weapon and clothing over a nearby bridge. All four were taken into custody and later convicted: Sockwell was convicted of capital murder and sentenced to death, Louise Harris was convicted of capital murder (a jury recommended life without parole but the judge imposed death, later commuted to life without parole), Hood received life, and McCarter—who testified against the others—was sentenced to life without parole. An appeals court later ordered Sockwell a retrial on grounds related to jury selection.

Does anyone have information about Isaiah Harris, his route that night, or contacts who might recall the events around March 10, 1988?
