James Michael Turner was 35 when he died in Madison, Wisconsin, on the night of August 26, 2022. The Dane County Medical Examiner listed firearm-related trauma as the cause of death after Turner was shot during what authorities described as a home invasion in the 1700 block of Packers Avenue. The resident of the apartment, identified as Jose Gomez, fired the shots that killed Turner.

Madison Police Chief Shon Barnes noted that Wisconsin’s Castle Doctrine could be relevant, because it allows residents to use deadly force against an intruder in their home. Gomez was not charged in Turner's death; investigators found drugs in the apartment and charged Gomez on unrelated drug offenses. The details released so far leave questions about the circumstances leading up to the shooting and the evidence supporting self-defense. Did anyone in the neighborhood see or hear anything that night?
