On a cold November day in 2017, the life of Julius Paul Jenkins, a 40-year-old male, was tragically cut short in Huntington, West Virginia. On November 29th, Jenkins was found the victim of a fatal shooting, a grim end to a life that authorities would soon link to individuals from out of state.
The investigation into the death of Julius Paul Jenkins quickly led law enforcement to suspect the involvement of two individuals.
These men, described as "proud" gang members, were believed to have ties to the Detroit area and it was thought they had returned there following the incident. In the immediate aftermath of the discovery of Jenkins' body, the Huntington Police Department announced that they had secured warrants for the two suspects they believed were responsible for the violent act.
Despite the initial progress in identifying potential suspects, the trail of information regarding any subsequent arrests in the death of Julius Paul Jenkins grows cold. Publicly available sources and news reports that detailed the initial investigation do not appear to provide further updates on whether the two men sought were ever apprehended or brought to trial for the killing. The narrative that began with a violent death and a swift finger pointed at two potential culprits fades without a clear resolution, leaving the final chapter of justice for Julius Paul Jenkins unwritten in the public record.
