A domestic argument in a Detroit home on March 19, 2022, ended in a fatal shooting. Jamel Sandifer, 30, and his girlfriend, Shanitra Newson, 29, were involved in a verbal dispute at their Bringard Drive residence in the afternoon while two children — a 10-year-old boy fathered by Sandifer and Newson’s 10-month-old child — were in the home. Officers responded to a shooting report at about 4:11 p.m. and found Sandifer inside with gunshot wounds to his wrist and the side of his body.

Before being taken to the hospital, Sandifer made a dying declaration identifying the mother of his child as the person who shot him. He later died at the hospital. Newson left the scene but subsequently turned herself in and was arrested. The Wayne County Prosecutor’s Office charged her with one count of second-degree murder and one count of felony firearm; she was arraigned, given $250,000 bond, and ordered to house arrest with a GPS tether as a condition of bond.

If anyone knew Sandifer or Newson, or was in the area that afternoon, did you see or hear anything that could help clarify what happened?
