Davon Brown, a 29-year-old Black man, was killed on May 31, 2017, outside his home at the Marion Terrace Apartments on Mark Drive in Hanover Township near Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania. A children’s graduation celebration that included a ceremony and an outing devolved into a dispute between Brown’s son and the son of Tremaine Divine Jamison, and by evening tensions followed families back to the apartment complex.

Witnesses and prosecutors say the confrontation escalated after Jamison and others returned to the area. Testimony presented at trial described a yard fight in which Jamison struck Brown, drew a knife, then left and later returned with a handgun. Witnesses testified that Brown was trying to get away when Jamison fired a single shot from a distance, striking Brown in the head; Brown died in the street outside his home.

Investigators linked a .40-caliber handgun to the shooting and accused Jamison, then 27 and from New York City, of being the shooter. Another man, Basim Labeem Murdaugh, was alleged to have provided the gun and later pleaded guilty to illegal possession of a firearm; he was sentenced to two to four years in state prison.

Did anyone at the graduation or in the Marion Terrace community see the dispute escalate that evening or have information about the movements of the people involved?
