Danick Marie Adams was 18 when she was shot and killed in the late hours of August 15, 2008, in Jacksonville, Arkansas. A young mother who wanted to become a teacher or child psychologist, she had been at the Ultimate Fitness center with a friend earlier that night. Witnesses say a masked man confronted them in the parking lot, demanded purses, cell phones, and money, then removed his mask and shot Danick five times.

The assailant fled in Danick’s white Cadillac; hours later the vehicle was seen near the scene and the driver fled on foot when police approached, leaving a female passenger who said she did not know him and could not identify him. The case remained cold for nearly seventeen years while her mother advocated for other families of murder victims. On June 30, 2025, authorities announced an arrest in the case and charged Lavel Deario Calvin of Memphis, Tennessee, with capital murder in connection with Danick’s death.

Does anyone have information about that night or remember seeing the white Cadillac around the fitness center on August 15, 2008?
