Complainant alleges that on Ju|y,27,2013, at approximately 12:30 a.m., Detective James
Hensley was sent to 2940 N. 12th Street in regards to a muitiple shooting. On arriving there he
saw a 14-year-old boy by the name of Japhet Moore lying in the street in front of 2g4b N. 12th
Street. Japhet Moore had a gunshot wound to his head and was pronounced deceased at the
scene. Detective Hensley also was made aware that three other people had been shot,
Deondre Barker, Alisha Carson-McWilliams and Gregory Thomas, and they all had been taken
to hospitals.
Complainant further alleges that on the date of July 27,2013, Detective Luke O'Day spoke to
Alisha Carson-McWilliams. Alisha Carson-McWilliams stated that she was at a house'party on
July 26, 2013, at2941N. 12th Street. She stated that around midnight a man who she knew as
Tevin Smith began fighting with Dequon McMillan and Devon McMiilan and that they were
fighting by 2940 N. 12th Street. She observed the defendant who she knows, DeMaiio Jackson,
come out of the house at 2940 N. 12th Street. He first stood on the porch and then as Tevin
Smith began fighting the homicide victim, Japhet Moore, DeMario Jackson began firing shots
into the crowd. That he shot Japhet Moore in the head and fired numerous shots into the
crowd. She stated that she began running westbound and felt a sharp pain in her back and
realized that she had been shot in the back. She stated that she then fell to the ground and was
taken to Froedtert Memorial Hospital where she was found to have suffered a gunshot wound to
her lower back and that there was surgery performed and the bullet was retrieved from her
uterus area. DeMario Jackson was firing shots in her direction when she was shot.
Complainant further alleges that a man by the name of Gregory Thomas was also interviewed
by Detective Luke O'Day. Gregory Thomas stated that shortly after midnight on July 21,2013,
he was standing with a group of people in the area of 2940 N. 12th Street. He stated that he
heard gunshots and felt a sharp pain to his chest. He realized he had been shot. He did not
see who shot him, and he was transferred to Children's Hospital where he was treated by Dr.
Nina Muhammad for a gunshot wound to his chest.
Complainant further alleges that Deondre Barker was also interviewed at Froedtert Hosoital bv
Detective Luke O'Day. Mr. Barker stated that he was at a party at2g41N. 12th Street. He
stated that he then began hearing some shots and began running. As he was running he fell to
the ground as he was shot in the leg. He stated that he was treaied by Dr. Maron Luna for the
gunshot wound to his leg. This occurred shorily after midnight.
Complainant further alleges that the body of Japhet Moore was transferred to the Milwaukee
County Medical Examiner's Office where an autopsy was done on Japhet Moore by Dr. Brian
Linert, an assistant medical examiner at the Milwaukee County Medical Examiner's Office. The
results of that autopsy revealed that Japhet Moore had suffered a gunshot wound that
penetrated his right skull, passed through his brain stem and caused his death. The opinion of
Dr. Linert that this gunshot wound caused Japhet Moore's death is to a reasonable degree of
medical certainty.
Complainant further alleges that also spoken to was a woman by the name of Audrielle Moore.
Ms' Moore stated that on the date of July 27 , 2013, she observed a fight outside of 2g4O N. 12th

observed the fight continue. She then observed a man who she positively identified as DeMario
Jackson exit 2940 N. 12th Street carrying a black bag with a zipper. DeMirio Jackson walked
down the porch a|2940 N. 12th Street and pulled oui a long barieled gun from the bag.
DeMario Moore held the gun with both hands and then began firing thl gun from left Io right in
an arc and was firingunto the crowd and it did not appear as if he was targeting anyone.
The
third shot that he fired hit Japhet Moore and Japhet Moore fell to the grou-nd. Audriele Moore
then began running southbound on N. 12th Street and when she heard the shots stop she

Page 4 of 5
returned to the scene. A photo array was shown to Ms. Moore where she positively identified
DeMario Jackson as the person who was firing the shots into the crowd and who shot and killed
Japhet Moore. He was the only person firing shots into the crowd outside of 2g4O N. 12th
Street.
Complainant further alleges that Detective David Dalland interviewed a woman by the name of
Nicole Bush. Ms. Bush stated that on the date of July 27,2013, just after midnight, there were
two parties going on, one at 2940 N. 12th Street and one al 2941 N. 12th Street. Ms. Bush
stated that she was inside of her residence at2940 N. 12th Street and came outside and there
was a fight. Ms. Bush stated that Tevin Smith was trying to fight Dequon McMillan. Ms. Bush
stated she tried to break up the fight. Dequon then punched a woman and knocked her to the
ground. DeMario Jackson then appeared with a long gun in both of his hands and began firing
7 times from the hip. She stated that she was positive that DeMario Jackson was firing a gun
because she saw the light coming out of the end of it about 4 times. She indicated that she then
ducked down and everyone began scattering. She stated that DeMario Jackson was firing from
the sidewalk near the front of 2940 N. 12th street, into the crowd of people.
Officer Brian Shull reports.that on July 27 ,2013 at about 2:40pm, he and fellow officer Michael
Rohde went to 4677 N. 40In Street, Apartment A, in an attempt to locate the Defendant, DeMario
Jackson. Mr. Jackson was a suspect in a homicide investigation, and he had an open warrant at
the time.
Upon arrival, Officer Shull reports that a female who identified herself as Unique met the officers
at the exterior door to the upper unit (which is unit A, at 4677 N. 4oth Street, located in the City
and County of Milwaukee). The officers explained why they were at the location. Unique stated
that she knew Defendant Jackson and had spoken to him approximately a week earlier. She
also stated that she lived at that address with her aunt. Officer Shull reports that, during the
officers' conversation with Unique, she allowed the officers to come upstairs into the upper unit,
where her aunt was sleeping. Unique woke the aunt, who was identified as Diane Hall. Ms. Hall
stated that she is the resident at the upper of 4677 N. 40th Street, and that she knows the
Defendant. She also told officers that the Defendant was not allowed to be in her house. She
gave the officers consent to search the house to make sure that the Defendant was not present.
Officer Rohde located the Defendant in the bathroom of the residence and placed him in
custody pursuant to the warrant and the homicide investigation.
Officer Rohde searched the Defendant's person and felt a large bulge inside the Defendant's
left front pants pocket. When asked, the Defendant admitted that the substance was "weed".
Officer Rohde removed the item and found that it was a large clear plastic bag that contained 23
corner cuts of what appeared to be marijuana.
The suspected marijuana was eventually turned over to Milwaukee Police Officer Matt Staedler
for testing. Officer Staedler performed a NARK ll-05 field test on the substance. The result was
positive for the presence of THC (tetrahydrocannabinols), the active ingredient in marijuana.
The total weight of the 23 corner cuts was 17.28 grams. Officer Rohde states that, based on his
training and experience, he believes that the substance was intended for distribution, rather
than personal use. This takes into consideration not only the weight of the substance but the
manner in which it was packaged.
A review of Milwaukee County Circuit Court Records shows that the Defendant, DeMario
Jackson, DOB 07123189, was convicted of Possession of Marijuana with Intent to Deliver
(CaqS{ 2Q09CF001256) in Milwaukee County. That conviction remains of record and
unreversed as of the date of this complaint. A certified copy of the judgment conviction for that
case will be filed with the court when it is made available to the District Attorney's office.
