On December 6, 2014, Charles Graham, 79, of Westland was shot in the head and killed on the 9300 block of Woodlawn Street in Detroit after traveling there in the early morning hours to meet two younger men for what police described as a drug transaction involving pills. Investigators say Graham entered a vehicle with Dale Morgan and Cortez Butler; Butler reportedly handed Graham the pills, asked for payment, a dispute followed, and Graham was shot. Both men fled the scene and Graham was left behind.

Detroit police identified and arrested the two men. Dale Morgan, 42, of Ypsilanti was charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, and felony firearm. Cortez Butler, 24, of Detroit was arraigned on charges of being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition. Both were held as proceedings began in 36th District Court.

If anyone witnessed activity on Woodlawn Street that morning or knew Charles Graham’s movements that night, can you share what you remember?
