On November 27, 2017, a fight at the intersection of Highway 61 and Highway 16 in Rolling Fork, Mississippi, ended with two deaths. Twenty-six-year-old Alex Jennings Jr., known as Mookey, and his 47-year-old father, Alex Jennings Sr., known as Ace, were both fatally shot after a physical altercation involving members of another family. A witness described separate scuffles: Jennings Jr. fought with Steven Lewis while Jennings Sr. was engaged with Lewis’s brother and a friend. The witness said Lewis and Jennings Jr. fell together, a gunshot sounded, and Jennings Jr. fell motionless; Lewis then stood and fought with Jennings Sr. and later was seen standing over him as fatal wounds were inflicted.

Steven Lewis was arrested and charged with the murders. At trial in Sharkey County Circuit Court he admitted to shooting both men but argued self-defense. The jury convicted Lewis of first-degree murder in the death of Alex Jennings Sr. and second-degree murder in the death of Alex Jennings Jr., and imposed consecutive sentences of life plus forty years. If anyone knew the Jennings family or witnessed the events that day, please share what might help the record.
