Jermaine Moore, a 35-year-old Black man from Flint, Michigan, was shot and killed on the evening of May 27, 2015. The shooting occurred about 8:40 p.m. near Witherbee Avenue and Avenue A during an outdoor memorial where friends, neighbors and mourners had gathered. Investigators said the confrontation began with an argument over a parking space and escalated to gunfire that struck Moore and injured others.

Police named Dominick Wright as the primary suspect and announced multiple charges tied to the incident, including open murder, three counts of assault with intent to murder and several weapons-related charges. Tauteece McCaskill later turned herself in and was arraigned on charges of being an accessory after the fact and carrying a concealed weapon in connection with the homicide. Wright was arrested in early November 2015 in Tulsa, Oklahoma, after a tip to Crime Stoppers led police to him.

The case moved into a lengthy legal process that did not result in a murder conviction, leaving Moore’s family and the community without a decisive courtroom resolution.
