Late morning on June 11, 2020, multiple gunshots rang out in a Camden, South Carolina neighborhood. Deputies responding to the 1200 block of First Street found 43-year-old Orlando Donte Priester lying in a driveway near the road’s edge; he had been shot multiple times and was pronounced dead at the scene. The Kershaw County Coroner, David West, later confirmed his identity and the cause of death.

By the end of that day authorities had arrested 48-year-old John Kevin Jones and charged him with murder in connection with Priester’s death. No motive or details about any relationship between Priester and Jones were released at the time. Priester, known to family and friends as Donte, owned D&D Builders and was remembered as an amazing carpenter.

Does anyone who knew Donte or who was in the First Street area that morning have information that could help clarify what happened?
