Dezmond Wilson was 24 when he was shot and killed at a recording studio in southwestern Atlanta in the late hours of a Wednesday in March 2010. An aspiring hip-hop artist working at Stack ’Em Entertainment, Wilson answered a knock at the door and, according to accounts, a man forced his way inside and opened fire. Wilson was struck multiple times and died at the scene; a friend with him was also wounded but survived.

Police investigated the homicide, interviewed the surviving witness and followed leads. Motive was not clear; investigators considered a possible robbery after some of Wilson’s personal belongings were reported missing.

Did anyone in Atlanta at the time hear about activity at Stack ’Em Entertainment or recognize the description of the assailant?
