On the evening of August 14, 2016, 32-year-old Paris S. McDaniel, a Black/African American woman, was shot and killed in an alleyway in Milwaukee’s Sherman Park neighborhood after a dispute turned deadly. The shooting occurred during a period of unrest in the area. Authorities say McDaniel was involved in a confrontation with Queena Johnson Rimes, who was legally carrying a firearm and later told investigators she felt threatened. There are also reports suggesting McDaniel may have been linked to a robbery that took place shortly before the encounter.

The case moved into the criminal justice system, and the families of both women attended court proceedings. McDaniel’s father spoke of his grief, calling his daughter murdered. Court filings state that Johnson Rimes expressed remorse and that the judge noted the lasting harm caused by the incident. Does anyone have information about McDaniel’s movements in Sherman Park that night or about witnesses who saw the confrontation?
