John Demetrius Logan Jr., a 25-year-old Black male, was killed in a shooting incident at his home on McQuay Court in Greenwood, South Carolina, on the evening of December 18, 2020. The Greenwood County Coroner's Office reported that Logan died at the scene from a single gunshot wound to the chest.
An investigation into the shooting led the Greenwood Police Department to identify 21-year-old Kailyn Tinisha Barksdale as a suspect.
She was taken into custody on December 22, 2020, and formally charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime. Authorities announced that the shooting was the result of a domestic dispute between Barksdale and Logan.
Following her arrest, Barksdale appeared for a bond hearing where a magistrate denied bond, citing the serious nature of the charges. At the time of the hearing, the investigation was ongoing as police continued to gather evidence and interview witnesses. Further details regarding a trial or conviction have not been made publicly available.
