Dana Hamilton was 44 when he was shot and killed in the early morning of May 19, 2016. Police were dispatched to the 800 block of Southern Avenue SE around 2:41 a.m. and found Hamilton with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to a hospital and pronounced dead.

The investigation identified 34-year-old Quincy Green, also known as Wayne Wright, as the suspect. Green was on high-intensity supervision for a prior gun charge and was supposed to be confined at home with a GPS tracker. The device had been placed on his prosthetic leg, which investigators say allowed him to remove the limb, leave home undetected, and commit the shooting. Green was arrested and charged with second-degree murder while armed; he later pleaded guilty and received a 17-year sentence in November 2019. Hamilton’s mother spoke at sentencing about the family’s enduring grief; Green apologized to the family and court before beginning his term.
