Devon Paul Durante was 25 when he was shot to death in Warrior, Alabama, on May 8, 2021. Public notices and his obituary confirm the date of death and his identity as Devon Paul Durante, born November 4, 1995. Visitation was scheduled for May 13, 2021, at Ridout’s Gardendale Chapel in Gardendale.

The investigation continued well beyond the immediate aftermath and produced a major development in September 2022 when Blount County booking records show Deanna Jones of Empire was taken into custody on a murder charge on September 13, 2022. The available material does not explain what evidence or information led to that arrest, nor does it document any final court outcome.

If anyone knew Devon, saw him in Warrior on May 8, 2021, or has information about the events that night, please share what is known with investigators.
