Dennis Bo Lee III was a 26-year-old Black man from Pontiac, Michigan, who was shot and killed on the porch of an apartment on Whittemore Street in the early morning hours of August 25, 2019. According to witnesses, a figure came out of the dark, walked straight toward Lee and his cousin, and was recognized by the cousin as his half-brother Lewis Terrelle McNeir. The encounter turned violent when the man pulled a gun and shot Lee in the chest; as Lee ran for the doorway a second shot struck him in the back. Deputies found Lee collapsed in the doorway with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to McLaren Oakland Hospital and pronounced dead a short time later.

Investigators recovered surveillance footage from a nearby Sunoco that helped trace a car linked to the incident to Dajhauh Brown, who testified that McNeir was her live-in boyfriend and had driven her car that morning. By August 29 authorities publicly identified McNeir and said charges including first-degree premeditated murder had been issued; he surrendered the next day and was arraigned on murder, felon-in-possession, and felony-firearm counts. The defendant was later convicted by a jury and sentenced to life in prison; the convictions were affirmed on appeal.

Did anyone who knew Dennis or who was in that neighborhood before dawn on August 25, 2019, see or hear anything that could add detail to what happened that night?
