On the evening of February 24, 2020, a burst of gunfire on Delhi Street near Violet Street in Boston’s Mattapan neighborhood left 29-year-old Roxbury resident Ricardo Bent-Hines dead. Officers arriving shortly after 7:30 p.m. found him suffering from multiple gunshot wounds; he was pronounced dead at the scene. The Boston Police Department’s Homicide Unit opened the investigation.

Bent-Hines had posted on Facebook the day before about seeking peace and tranquility in a cruel society. His death was counted among 57 homicides in Boston that year, a notable increase from the prior year. Authorities publicly identified him and asked for help from anyone with information, but there have been no detailed public reports about suspect identifications or arrests.

Does anyone in the Mattapan or Roxbury community have information that could help bring answers in this case?
