In the development of the story, the Greenbelt Police Department has released a sketch of the suspect in the killing that took place in the parking lot of the office building where Jenifer had her employment agency is located.
A report by WTop has it that although the police are yet to name a suspect or a motive behind the fatal shooting, the gunman shot her in front of about 10 witnesses before running off.
It would be recalled that the tragic murder of Jenifer happened earlier this month and it was gathered that she was still legally married to a convicted Baltimore-area drug dealer, Kedrick Jenifer when she married Attoh in October 2018. She was reportedly living in Kedrick’s house before her murder.
Speaking about the murder at the time, the police department spokesman, George Mathews had said,
“Our investigators do not believe this was random. It was very brazen – it happened in broad daylight in front of multiple witnesses.”
Bettie was still in the process of divorcing Kedrick when she was killed.
