Janesa Lashay Harris, 28, was found dead in her St. Cloud, Minnesota, apartment on June 2, 2021. A property manager discovered her body on the 1400 block of 12th Avenue North; an autopsy later determined she died of a gunshot wound on or around May 31. Her family said she had moved to St. Cloud from Milwaukee and described her as loving and outgoing with a good heart.

Investigators linked Janesa’s killing to the June 2 discovery of 25-year-old Keisa Marie Lange’s body on the side of a road in St. Cloud after both victims were shot. Police noted notable similarities and focused on a single suspect. Angela Renee Jones, who had a prior relationship with Janesa and had been helped by Janesa and her children, reportedly went to Janesa’s apartment late on June 1 or early June 2. An argument occurred and Janesa was shot in the mouth; Jones fled.

Authorities say Keisa Lange was believed to know about Janesa’s killing; text messages shown in court suggested Lange might talk about it. Jones admitted she was in the car when Lange was fatally shot by another person and that she helped clean up evidence afterward. Jones was indicted for Janesa’s murder. Does anyone have information about Janesa’s life in St. Cloud or observations from that week?
