Devin Jordan, 29, was fatally shot on March 24, 2012, in Houston after being followed to his car by several people shortly after buying a pair of sought-after Air Jordan sneakers at Willowbrook Mall. According to police reports, the assailants approached his parked vehicle and demanded the shoes; an altercation followed and Devin was killed. The case involved multiple individuals and drew wide attention because the dispute began over the sneakers.
Multiple people were charged in connection with the murder, including Neal Bland and Daron Taylor, and some defendants received lengthy sentences while others took plea deals or faced full trials. Devin’s mother, Dazie Williams, launched an initiative called Life Over Fashion to try to reduce violence linked to high-value consumer items.
