Victim: Jahcari Francis, 20.

Date and location of murder: July 19, 2017, Upland Street, Devonshire.

Circumstances: Mr Francis, a close friend of Isaiah Furbert, was fatally shot in the same home where his friend had died, in what police described as an identical scenario.

It was thought likely that Mr Francis fell victim to the protracted feud between the 42 and Parkside gangs. Mr Francis had been associated with the former.

There were three other people in the home when his assailant fired upon Mr Francis from the outside at about 10.45pm.

He was pronounced dead at the scene. Arretta Furbert, the mother of Isaiah Furbert, said her son’s friend had moved in after getting injured in a bike crash.

She described hearing two shots as the glass of the house’s French door shattered.

“To have two children die at your feet is the most awful experience you can imagine,” she said.

“Sometimes I see Isaiah lying there and I can hear Jahcari calling to me.”
