In the late summer of 2016, the life of Anthony Lamont Marshall, a 34-year-old Black male from Baltimore, Maryland, was tragically cut short. On the afternoon of September 8th, his body was discovered inside a vacant apartment situated in the 4400 block of Plainfield Avenue. The cause of his untimely death was determined to be a gunshot wound. At the scene, medical examiners pronounced him dead, leaving behind a community to grapple with the sudden and violent loss.
Anthony, who was born
on July 21, 1982, was remembered by his family as a warm and loving individual with a character that was larger than life. He was known for his calm and laid-back demeanor and his enjoyment of spending time with his relatives.
