In the quiet hours of a November morning in Oklahoma City, a tragic event unfolded that would cut short the lives of two individuals. On Saturday, November 19, 2016, police were called to a scene where they discovered the bodies of 38-year-old Marcus Green and Shanae Hill. Both had been shot to death in what was determined to be a double homicide.
The initial investigation into the deaths of Green and Hill led authorities to identify a person of interest. An arrest warrant was issued for Demetrius Green, who was wanted in connection with the fatal shootings. Details surrounding the motive and the circumstances that led to the deadly encounter remained under investigation as law enforcement began their search for the suspect.
Following the issuance of the arrest warrant, Demetrius Green was
located and taken into custody. He was subsequently charged with two counts of first-degree murder for the deaths of Marcus Green and Shanae Hill, bringing a measure of progress to a case that had left a community searching for answers. The relationship between the suspect and the victims, if any, was not immediately made public as the case prepared to move through the legal system.
