Could the tragic loss of this young Oxon Hill man have been prevented and are justice and compensation available to Mr. Adams’ family?

Local News

Security measures are in question after 24-year-old Kinard Adams was shot and killed “in a Fort Washington shopping center parking lot Monday night,” December 3, 2018, according to WTOP News.

The Prince George County Police Department told media, “officers were called to the 8500 block of Allentown Road,” around 7:20 p.m. Mr. Adams was discovered “in the parking lot” with “multiple gunshot wounds.” Tragically, he succumbed to fatal injuries at the scene. Investigators are still searching for a suspect and motive.

Our Legal Take

Store and parking lot patrons have a right to feel safe and secure while on the premises. The Murray Law Firm questions the level of security provided on the property and whether this tragedy may have been prevented.

  • Have there been prior incidents of violence on or near property?
  • What security measures, such as bright lighting, monitored surveillance cameras and visible security personnel, were in place to deter crime and protect Mr. Adams at the time of the shooting?

Generally, property owners are required to protect all those legally on the premises from any foreseeable harm. Should the facts of this matter reveal that the shopping center parking lot owners failed to provide adequate security to protect those on its premises, Mr. Adams’ family may seek justice and elect to pursue legal claims for their loss.

Based upon its prior successful experience in handling security negligence claims on behalf of victims and their families, The Murray Law Firm suggests that photographs and a thorough, unbiased inspection of the property will need to be performed immediately, before any evidence may be repaired, damaged or destroyed. Given the complexities of pursuing a negligent security case, it is imperative that the victim’s family retain an experienced attorney who can ensure the preservation of any and all evidence that may support such a claim.
