This petition is a step toward healing a family victimized by senseless violence. On April 7, 2011 Shawnta Coleman was shot and killed while her baby was in a car seat nearby it’s been 2 months since her senseless murder and the case still remains open. Shawnta leaves behind 4 children and a host of family and friends. We are requesting for justice in hopes that someone will come forward with valuable information about this case. Although nothing can undo the events of April 7, 2011, the family is hopeful that justice will prevail. Prince Georges County police department has the duty to enforce the law fairly and equally and to protect. Shawnta’s family wants justice to begin repairing the damage that has rippled through this family. We are committed to doing whatever we can to support the PGCPD in closing this case. Shawnta has become a statistic being Prince George’s County 29th homicide victim. To PG county Shawnta is case number 11-097-3136; to her family she is much more. Her family wants a thorough investigation to determine the facts and circumstances leading up to the time of the incident of her death. It has been said that for homicide detectives the first 48 hours of a murder investigation is critical, it has been 1,512 hours. We won't stand by and allow this case to go unsolved and a murderer walk our streets. Take action by signing showing your support for Shawnta.
