Charles Dukes, 67, of Clinton, Mississippi, was found fatally shot in his vehicle on Highway 18 in Jackson on September 22, 2016. The Jackson Police Department opened an investigation and treated the death as a homicide; it was counted as Jackson’s 50th homicide of that year.

Within a week police announced two people had been taken into custody in connection with the killing: 21-year-old Cedric Butler and a 16-year-old juvenile, Jermaine Jackson. Both were booked into the Jackson city jail and later indicted by a Hinds County grand jury on capital murder charges.

Court records show Butler was convicted of capital murder and received life in prison without parole. The juvenile, Jermaine Jackson, was handled in youth court and adjudicated responsible for his role. Does anyone have information about Dukes, his routine in September 2016, or what led to him being on Highway 18 that day?
