A summer afternoon turned deadly for 21-year-old Amari Jenkins on August 18, 2015. Just after noon Jenkins was on the front lawn of St. Luke Catholic Church on East Capitol Street in Washington, D.C., when a blue Honda Odyssey pulled up. Two masked men in blue latex gloves ran from the vehicle and opened fire, striking Jenkins near a statue of Jesus and firing a total of 28 rounds at the scene.

Investigators later tied the killing to a violent turf rivalry and said Jenkins had been targeted after being tipped as attending a class at the church; the motive was described as retaliation for an earlier incident in which Jenkins allegedly shot at one of the suspects. In December 2017 authorities arrested Rondell McLeod and Joseph Antonio Brown; in September 2023 Brown pleaded guilty to second-degree murder while armed and McLeod pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter while armed, both admitting they emerged from the van and fired those 28 rounds.

Does anyone have information about Jenkins or the church community around East Capitol Street in 2015 that could shed more light on what happened that day?
