On March 2, 2018, Diva Davis, 47, and her husband were shot and killed in their son’s dormitory room at Central Michigan University. The couple had driven from Plainfield, Illinois to bring their son home for spring break when the morning turned fatal. Campus lockdown followed and the community was left reeling.

Their 19-year-old son was identified as the suspect, fled the scene, and was captured later that evening near campus after a large manhunt. He was charged with two counts of open murder and felony firearms offenses and pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity; a judge later found him mentally ill at the time of the killings and ordered psychiatric commitment, so the case did not go to trial. Investigators said the weapon belonged to the victim’s husband, a part-time police officer in Bellwood, Illinois.

Diva Davis is remembered by friends and neighbors as a devoted parent. If anyone knew the Davises or was in Mount Pleasant that week, what did the family mean to the community or what other details might help clarify the timeline?
