A domestic visit in Southeast Washington, D.C., on April 12, 2021, ended in a double homicide and a related arson. Wanda Demethria Wright, 48, and her daughter Ebony Wright, 32, were shot inside an apartment in the 2300 block of Good Hope Court, SE, after a man identified as Keanan Christopher Turner — the father of Ebony’s infant child — arrived upset about child support paperwork. A third woman, the baby’s aunt, was shot in the face but survived and, despite severe injuries, rescued the infant from a fire set inside the apartment and later identified Turner to police.

Turner was arrested on April 16, 2021, in Stafford, Virginia. Investigators used evidence including footage from a Ring door camera, and Turner was charged with two counts of first-degree murder while armed, assault with intent to kill while armed, and related offenses. A jury found him guilty on all counts, and he received a 68-year prison sentence for the murders, the attempted murder of the surviving victim, and intentionally setting the fire while the infant was inside.

If anyone knew Wanda or Ebony Wright, or has information about the events that night, please share what you know.
