On a cold Friday night in early January 2014, 19-year-old Justin Curry of Laurel, Mississippi, was shot as he left a house on Woodlawn Drive. He and 31-year-old Bennie Owens were guests at the home; as both men walked toward the front door just after 11 p.m., someone outside opened fire. Justin was mortally wounded at the entrance and pronounced dead at the scene; Bennie was taken to a hospital and died during surgery. Neighbors reported hearing gunfire on the quiet street.

He was buried at Oak Hill Cemetery #2 in Laurel. Police initially reported no arrests, but within a week four local young adults were taken into custody. Two women were charged with hindering prosecution and two men were booked on murder and aggravated assault counts.

What details about that night or those involved might help explain why two men were targeted on Woodlawn Drive?
