On the evening of December 16, 2015, 22-year-old Feron Shadell Whitley, a Black man, was found dead in the driver’s seat of his silver Dodge Avenger at the Autumn Park Apartments in Little Rock, Arkansas. Police responded to reports of a shooting around 5:15 p.m.; Whitley had apparent gunshot wounds. His death was the city’s 29th homicide that year.

Investigators identified two suspects. A warrant was issued for 21-year-old Brandon Nevels, who was already in the Pulaski County Regional Jail on unrelated charges; he was formally charged with capital murder on January 28, 2016. The second suspect, 19-year-old Nautica Finney, surrendered on January 31, 2016, and was also charged with capital murder. In August 2016 Finney accepted a plea agreement: the capital murder charge was dismissed and she pleaded guilty to robbery and a firearm enhancement, receiving consecutive sentences totalling 30 years. Nevels remained in custody awaiting trial.

Did anyone in Little Rock have information about Feron Whitley or the circumstances at Autumn Park Apartments that night?
