On Wednesday afternoon, September 16, 2015, 23-year-old Luis Bodden-Maximo was shot and killed in an execution-style attack after leaving a TGI Friday’s on Tremont Street in Boston. Luis and his girlfriend had been eating when a man later identified as Javier Smith entered and made eye contact with them; Luis urged his girlfriend to leave. In the restaurant’s parking lot the couple were confronted by Jerome Meade, who called Luis an opp and produced a .40-caliber handgun. Meade chased Luis as he tried to flee, shot him until he collapsed face down, then fired additional rounds while standing over him. Luis was taken to Brigham and Women’s Hospital and pronounced dead.

Investigators used witness statements and video surveillance to identify those involved. The gun and a discarded sweatshirt were recovered; the firearm later tested positive for Meade’s DNA. Cell phone data placed both Smith and Meade at the scene, and Lee Gill was identified as the driver of the getaway vehicle, a red Jeep Cherokee seen dropping Smith off before the shooting and picking Meade up afterward. In May 2022, two of the men were convicted and sentenced. Does anyone have information about Luis, the scene that day, or those who were present?
