On the evening of September 25, 2012, 16-year-old Jaleel Raglin was shot in the head inside an apartment at the Matador North complex on Winburn Drive in Lexington, Kentucky, while visiting his infant son, Kaiden. He was taken to the University of Kentucky Hospital and pronounced dead shortly after arrival.

Lexington police arrested 20-year-old Malik Shabazz Johnson hours after the shooting. Investigators reported a history of conflict between Raglin and Johnson tied to a shared romantic interest in the child’s mother, Da'Jure Jones. A witness said Johnson entered the apartment, gunshots were heard, and Johnson exited; Johnson later confessed in a police interview to shooting Raglin multiple times, though his defense claimed Johnson acted in self-defense after Raglin swung at him. A Fayette County grand jury indicted Johnson on murder and tampering with physical evidence; he initially pleaded not guilty.

Family and friends remembered Raglin as kindhearted and trying to turn his life around for his newborn son. Did anyone in Lexington know Jaleel or have information about tensions at Matador North that night?
