On the afternoon of Tuesday, April 14, 2015, 18-year-old Michael Powell, a Black male with a history of mental health challenges, was found fatally shot inside a residence near 29th and Melvina in Milwaukee. Powell had entered a home belonging to two brothers without their permission.

Police identified the occupants as 27-year-old Aaron Jones and 25-year-old Aric Jones. The criminal complaint says Aric, armed with a .40 caliber semi-automatic handgun and assisted by his brother, shot Powell. Investigators did not find a weapon on Powell or at the scene, and the brothers did not call 911 or seek police assistance when they found Powell in their home.

Both brothers were initially charged with second-degree intentional homicide; Aric also faced a felon-in-possession count. In October 2015 Aric pleaded guilty to an amended charge of homicide by negligent handling of a dangerous weapon and the possession charge was dismissed but considered at sentencing. In November 2015 Aaron pleaded no contest to delinquent possession of a firearm; he received three years probation and 30 days in the House of Correction for the firearm charge. Aric was sentenced in December 2015.

Does anyone have additional information about Michael Powell or about what happened that afternoon?
