Raphael Tino Simpkins, known as Tino, was 28 when he was found dead in a house fire in Flint, Michigan, on March 24, 2016. Initial responders discovered his body inside the burning home, and investigators later determined he had been shot to death before the fire was set. The blaze appears to have been used to conceal the homicide.

Police described an active search for a suspect in the shooting but did not release names, motives, or persons of interest in the early stages of the investigation. The case left the local community seeking answers and investigators working to reconstruct events that led to his death.

Does anyone have information about Raphael’s last known movements or who might have been in that neighborhood on March 24, 2016?
