Quentin Judd, a 23-year-old African American male, was fatally shot at an apartment complex in Raleigh, North Carolina, on August 27, 2017. The incident occurred at the Vie at Raleigh apartments, located at 5903 Wolf Glen Court, around 3:15 a.m. when officers responded to a noise complaint about a large party. Judd, a former basketball player at Shaw University, was found in a breezeway suffering from gunshot wounds and was transported to WakeMed, where he later died.
The investigation
into Judd's death led to the arrest of Barry Carnell McCrae Jr., a 23-year-old African American male, who was charged with murder. McCrae, who also lived at the apartment complex, was indicted by a Wake County jury for first-degree murder and conspiracy to commit felony first-degree murder. McCrae is being held without bond at the Wake County Detention Center.
Judd's death and the subsequent arrest of McCrae have been the subject of ongoing legal proceedings. McCrae's indictment and the charges against him highlight the severity of the crime and the efforts of law enforcement to bring justice to Judd's family. The case has drawn attention to the issue of gun violence and the impact it has on communities, particularly those involving young African American males.
