Ciara Philumalee, 24, was shot in the head just before 1:45 a.m. on July 28, 2017, on Karstens Drive in Madison, Wisconsin, and later died at a local hospital. A 44-year-old man was also found with a gunshot wound to the jaw and had left the scene before first responders arrived.

Investigators identified Jennifer L. Lovick, 34, and Korey V. Johnson, 33, as persons of interest; a tip from a truck stop near Token Creek Park in DeForest led deputies to pursue and arrest them in the park. Authorities said Donald Davis Jr. arranged a murder-for-hire after believing Philumalee had been involved in a robbery against him. Davis allegedly paid Lovick with money and crack cocaine to locate Philumalee, and Johnson was also paid for his role.

Four people were convicted in connection with Philumalee’s killing: Donald Davis Jr. was found guilty of First-Degree Intentional Homicide; Jennifer Lovick pleaded guilty to Conspiracy to Commit Felony Murder; Korey Johnson pleaded guilty to Second-Degree Reckless Homicide; and Nicole Marco pleaded guilty to First-Degree Reckless Homicide. Did anyone in the Madison area know Ciara or have information about the days leading up to July 28, 2017?
