Marko D. Stennis, a 37-year-old Black man, was killed on January 20, 2020, in Milwaukee. He and his wife drove to the 3800 block of North 24th Place because Stennis expected to collect money owed to him. A man later identified as 23-year-old Deon Staten climbed into the back seat during the meeting. After a brief drive to an ATM and a return, Staten re-entered the vehicle, told Stennis to give it up, and shots were heard while Stennis turned toward the back seat.

Officers found Stennis in the driver’s seat with a fatal gunshot wound to the head. Investigators recovered a gun, drugs, and three bullet casings positioned consistent with the shooter having been in the back passenger seat. Staten fled but was later taken into custody; he told police the meeting had been a pretext for a robbery and described a struggle in which he said Stennis shot him first.
