Dominicko Howell, 31, was shot in a Phoenix hotel room on February 27, 2021. Police found Howell with gunshot wounds after a reported shooting at the Red Roof Inn; he was taken to a hospital and later died. The shooting occurred during an altercation in the room where several people had gathered reportedly to help one person recover money from Howell.

Investigators identified Michael Edward Tupper as the person who fired the fatal shot to Howell’s head. Tupper was arrested on March 3, 2021, and later pleaded guilty to one count of second-degree murder, a class 1 dangerous felony, receiving a 15-year prison sentence. Four other people were reported to have been in the room; their legal outcomes have not been detailed.

Did anyone who knew Dominicko or who was in that hotel want to come forward with additional information?
