On the evening of August 1, 2016, Brett White, a 44-year-old man from Salem, Oregon, was fatally shot inside his home on Jean Court NE. Two men entered the house armed with a shotgun and a pistol intending to steal marijuana from White’s 20-year-old son, William White. He was taken to a local hospital but died of his injuries.

Investigators say the two suspects fled in a red or maroon Pontiac Grand Am. The next morning police located them at the Budget Inn in Woodburn, where the Marion County SWAT Team executed a search warrant and arrested 22-year-old Denzel Cortez Hawthorne of Michigan and 20-year-old Eloy Carrera Jr. of Illinois. Both were charged with murder, robbery, and burglary and were held on $2 million bail each as a flight risk.

Did anyone in the area know the Whites or see the Pontiac Grand Am around Jean Court NE that night?
