Eugene De’Mario Jackson, 24, was shot multiple times on the evening of August 20, 2015, near 7th and State Street in Three Rivers, Michigan. He was airlifted to a Kalamazoo hospital but died of his wounds. Witnesses reported Jackson speaking with 28-year-old Westly George shortly before gunfire, and Jackson, while being helped, identified George as his shooter. George was seen fleeing and was taken into custody soon afterward.

Investigators uncovered a prior history of threats by George against Jackson; that information and witness testimony were central to the prosecution. George faced charges including open murder, being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, carrying a concealed weapon, and felony firearm. The case resolved in a conviction and sentencing that family members described as bringing some closure.

If anyone knew Eugene, saw him that night, or has additional information about the events around 7th and State Street on August 20, 2015, please come forward.
