Carl Cosby Jr., 28, was found shot to death in the basement of his grandmother’s home on Vanderbilt Court in northwest Atlanta in early November 2016. He lived with his grandmother and was a father of two young daughters; friends and family described him as a hardworking warehouse employee and car enthusiast with no known enemies.

Atlanta police released home surveillance footage showing a Black male person of interest at Cosby’s front door just before gunshots were heard. Investigators emphasized a prominent tattoo on the man’s left hand. A later, clearer video released about a year after the shooting reportedly shows the same man firing into the home and then walking away without appearing to notice the camera.

No arrests have been announced and the family continues to seek answers. If anyone has information about the man captured on the surveillance footage or the tattooed left hand, contact investigators.
