On December 5, 2022, 37-year-old Dana Bailey, a Black male and retired Air Force veteran, was shot and killed in his apartment on the 3200 block of E Street Southeast in Washington, D.C. He was with his wife, Lakeyvette Sears, when he was fatally shot in the chest. While dying he identified his assailant by the nickname Papi, a statement investigators treated as a crucial clue.

Investigators say Papi was identified as Keyon Slaughter, 26, who was alleged to have been having an affair with Sears. Surveillance footage reportedly showed Slaughter’s vehicle following the bus Bailey and Sears took that morning. Cellphone location data and social media photos were cited as placing Slaughter near the scene and wearing clothing matching Sears’s description of the man who fled the apartment. Authorities also allege Slaughter was waiting in the couple’s bedroom when they returned to the apartment.

On July 12, 2023, Slaughter was arrested and charged with first-degree murder while armed. Sears was arrested and charged with obstruction of justice for allegedly deleting phone records before turning over her phone to investigators. Does anyone have information about the morning of December 5, 2022, or about movements near E Street Southeast that day?
