Jermaine Simmons was 26 when he and his 20-year-old cousin, Kamal Lawson, were found shot to death inside a white car on Appleton Lane in the Shively area of Louisville on March 31, 2016. Both men suffered fatal gunshot wounds in what police called a double homicide; a nearby witness heard two shots and saw the vehicle with its windshield wipers still running.

Investigators say the victims knew the alleged shooters and had arranged a meeting that was presented as a marijuana buy. The meeting escalated into a deadly confrontation in a parking lot outside the apartment of one of the suspect’s mothers. Within days, Shively Police arrested two 18-year-old suspects, Marquice Hamilton and Brian Hutchings, charging each with two counts of murder, two counts of robbery, and tampering with physical evidence; a grand jury later added a drug trafficking charge. Authorities said no further arrests were expected.

Did anyone in the Shively community see activity around Appleton Lane that night or recognize the vehicle involved?
