Kiara Poole was 21 when she and 22-year-old Samantha Cannon were found dead in a Rainbow Motel room on Medgar Evers Boulevard in Jackson, Mississippi. The women were discovered on the evening of January 23, 2022, each suffering multiple gunshot wounds.

Police identified 38-year-old Germaine Darnell White as a suspect; he had rented the motel room and reportedly spent much of the day with Poole and Cannon. Reports say the three were allegedly using drugs together before violence erupted. White was arrested soon after and charged with two counts of murder and one count of being a felon in possession of a firearm. His record included a prior burglary conviction and a recent mistaken release from jail on a separate charge.

The killings were described by authorities as deliberate. If anyone has information about Kiara Poole, where she spent her time in Jackson, or the events at the Rainbow Motel, please share what you know.
