On the morning of February 15, 2023, a locked and barricaded apartment in Swissvale, a suburb of Pittsburgh, yielded a grisly scene: 39-year-old Megan Campbell and her 7-year-old daughter Lyla had been shot in the head at close range. First responders called for a medical emergency were initially unable to enter the unit. Megan, a registered nurse recently promoted to Director of Nursing, was found in her scrubs with a toothbrush underneath her body, suggesting she was preparing for work. Lyla was discovered in bed covered by a blanket.

Investigators focused on Kareef Easington, who had been living with Megan on and off for several months. Family reported that the morning of the killings Megan told her mother to get Easington out of the apartment; police believe the murders occurred around 7 a.m. Evidence at the scene indicated a struggle: a pistol, dumbbells used to barricade the door, an overturned chair and other items were recovered. DNA from six tested items linked Easington to the scene, and some of his belongings were found in the toilet.

If anyone has information about who saw Megan, Lyla, or Easington in Swissvale that morning, please share what you know.
