Kemorie Wallace

Kemorie Javon Wallace, a 19-year-old from Miami, Florida, was tragically killed on January 5, 2017. The incident occurred near the intersection of SW 200th Street and 114th Avenue, shortly before 8:30 PM. Wallace was shot multiple times and, despite his efforts to seek help, he collapsed on the sidewalk and succumbed to his injuries. The exact details of the shooting, including the caliber and model of the gun used, remain unknown. There is limited information available about the circumstances leading to his death, and it is unclear whether Wallace was specifically targeted or if this was a case of mistaken identity. There were no reports of suspicious vehicles or individuals in the area at the time of the shooting.

Kemorie Wallace was an active participant in the Miami-Dade Partners 4 Peace project, which aimed to give teenagers a platform to express their experiences with gun violence through music. He was part of the Richmond Perrine Optimist Academy Group 1, which recorded a song titled "Books Up, Guns Down!" advocating for education as an alternative to violence. Wallace's voice and message for peace continue to resonate through this project.

Despite the passage of time, there have been no significant developments in the investigation into Wallace's death. His case remains unsolved, and his family continues to seek answers and justice. The lack of concrete evidence and leads has made it challenging for law enforcement to make progress. There have been no arrests or identified suspects in connection with the murder, and the case has not seen any major litigation or legal proceedings.

The community and Wallace's family hold onto hope that renewed attention to the case might bring forward new information or witnesses that could help solve this tragic crime. The ongoing efforts to keep Wallace's memory alive and to highlight the impact of gun violence on young lives are crucial in the quest for justice and peace.
