JaQuan Crumpler, 20, was found dead in his bedroom in Emporia, Virginia, on February 14, 2019, the victim of a gunshot wound. His death prompted an investigation that produced an unexpected development the following week.

A 15-year-old acquaintance who had been spending time with the family and consoling them after the death was arrested on February 21, 2019. The youth was charged with first-degree murder and the use of a firearm in the commission of a felony and was held at a juvenile detention center. Authorities did not immediately provide a motive and described difficulty understanding both the killing and the suspect’s subsequent behavior.

Does anyone have information about JaQuan’s last day or about contacts between him and the 15-year-old in the days before February 14, 2019?
