Marcus Hill was 15 when he was fatally shot on the evening of January 7, 2015, near a Family Dollar store on Detroit’s west side. The shooting stunned the community and prompted a police investigation that quickly focused on a person of interest.

Within days a suspect was taken into custody and arraigned on charges related to Hill’s death. The case moved through subsequent hearings and ultimately to a trial, where the prosecution presented evidence and the defense contested that case. The court process concluded with a determination of the accused’s accountability for the teenager’s killing.

If anyone was in that neighborhood that night or knew Marcus Hill, the investigation could still benefit from new information.
