Mickael James Easterling, a 34-year-old Black man, was found shot to death in the driveway of his Parkwood Street home in Inkster, Michigan, on November 1, 2017. He was located next to his vehicle with multiple gunshot wounds; authorities determined his death was a homicide. Investigators identified 41-year-old Lonnie Edward Hodges, III, of Ypsilanti as a suspect and charged him with first-degree murder, possession of a firearm by a felon, and a felony firearm count.

Hodges was held without bond in the Wayne County Jail due to the severity of the charges and his prior convictions for assault, auto theft, and bank robbery. The case later resulted in convictions and a lengthy prison term for Hodges.
