Michelle Blackmon, a 52-year-old pastor from Milwaukee, was shot multiple times in the face and head at her West Silver Spring Drive home on September 11, 2020. A child in the house was attending a virtual classroom when classmates and the teacher reportedly heard the gunshots and called 911.

The suspect was identified as Michelle’s brother, Mario Stokes, then 55. Stokes reportedly had ongoing mental health issues and a prior 2014 gun case in which he was found not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect. Police say Stokes argued with Blackmon about leaving the house the morning before and returned the next morning and shot her. He then went to the District 4 Police Station and confessed, saying he used a .380 caliber firearm. Stokes was charged with first-degree reckless homicide with a dangerous-weapon modifier and with possession of a firearm based on his prior legal history.

Michelle’s community remembered her as a dedicated pastor who helped others. Does anyone have information about Michelle, her work in Milwaukee, or details that could shed light on what happened that day?
