On the night of April 5, 2019, 18-year-old Sakira Bonner was found lying in the middle of a street near South 64th Street and Coachlight Drive in West Des Moines, Iowa, after reports of shots fired. Emergency responders took her to a local hospital, where she was pronounced dead; she had been shot three times. Authorities say the killing arose from a robbery tied to a drug deal. Court documents say one suspect picked Bonner up from a Holiday Inn as she sought to buy marijuana, and the encounter escalated into violence.

Within days the West Des Moines Police Department announced multiple arrests. Seventeen-year-old Eliazar Montoya Gama of Des Moines and 20-year-old Johndarius Lewis of Des Moines were each charged with first-degree murder and first-degree robbery. Investigators later charged 16-year-old D'Taveon John Gully of Fort Dodge and a 15-year-old male, whose name was not released because of his age, with the same counts. Police said they believed everyone with direct involvement in Bonner’s murder had been identified and charged.

Does anyone have information about Bonner’s movements in Des Moines on April 5, 2019, or about the Holiday Inn pickup that evening?
