D’Angelo Wilson was 18 when he was shot dead in Newport, Kentucky, on the evening of August 6, 2014. A recent graduate of Newport High School with a 3.0 GPA, he worked two fast-food jobs and was saving for college, planning to attend either Morehead State or Northern Kentucky University. He was visiting friends and family at Barkley Ridge Apartments on Bluegrass Avenue and was in a friend’s second-floor apartment when he was shot in the back of the head just after 8 p.m. He was taken to University Hospital and died of his injuries.

Police arrested a 17-year-old male from Fort Thomas and charged him with murder; the suspect was later identified in reports as Makyle Wilson, not related to the victim. A grand jury indicted him on murder and tampering with physical evidence, alleging he hid the handgun after the shooting. Reports say he was later sentenced to eleven years for manslaughter and tampering with evidence; his earliest parole eligibility came in the fall of 2016 and the parole board denied release after a campaign by D’Angelo’s mother.

Are there details about that night or the people at Barkley Ridge Apartments that anyone can add?
