On the night of September 24, 2006, a party at the West Indian Social Club in Hartford, Connecticut, turned deadly when 19-year-old Shawn Matthews Hoot Dudley was shot once in the chest while on the dance floor during a confrontation with several other males. He was pronounced dead at the scene and the investigation later went cold.

Years after the killing, the Connecticut Department of Correction circulated cold case playing cards in prisons; the 9 of diamonds featured Dudley’s case. A February 2011 tip stemming from that distribution identified a suspect, Quan Morgan, who was already in custody on unrelated charges at the time. Morgan was arrested and charged in Dudley’s death and in October 2011 pleaded guilty to one count of murder in Hartford Superior Court.

Does anyone have memories of the West Indian Social Club or that night in 2006 that could add context to the case?
