In the late spring of 2015, the life of 51-year-old Scottie James Alfred was tragically cut short in Lafayette, Louisiana. On the evening of Sunday, May 24, 2015, Alfred was discovered inside a vehicle, the victim of a fatal shooting. The Lafayette Police Department was called to the scene and immediately began an investigation into the violent death that had shaken the community.
Scottie James Alfred, a male resident of Lafayette, was known by friends and family.
His sudden and violent death left a void in the lives of those who knew him. In the days following the discovery of his body, an obituary was published, announcing his passing and funeral arrangements, allowing friends and loved ones to gather and mourn their loss.
Despite the initial investigation by the Lafayette Police Department, years have passed without any publicly available information regarding an arrest or the identification of a suspect or suspects in the murder of Scottie James Alfred. The case, like many others across the country, appears to have grown cold, leaving his family and community without answers or a sense of justice. There have been no subsequent announcements from law enforcement officials regarding any breaks in the case, and the circumstances surrounding his death remain an unsolved mystery.
