In the early morning hours of July 2, 2016, a violent encounter at the Turf Motel in Laurel, Maryland, left 29-year-old Amanda Diane Duer dead. Duer and a companion, Derick DeAnthony Henderson, became involved in a dispute with a man they knew after he appeared at the doorway of their motel room. The man fired a gun at both Duer and Henderson; both were struck. Duer was taken to Laurel Regional Hospital and pronounced dead. Henderson survived after treatment for a leg wound.

Police identified the acquaintance as Kenneth Frizzell Diggs, Jr., then 47 with no fixed address, and charged him with murder, attempted murder, assault, reckless endangerment, burglary, and firearms violations. A reward was offered and later increased to $10,000 while task forces searched for him. The surviving victim identified Diggs as the shooter during later court proceedings.

Does anyone have information about Amanda’s activities in Laurel around July 2, 2016, or remember seeing her or the involved parties at the Turf Motel?
