It’s been one month since an early morning double homicide claimed the lives of a 16-year-old, a 32-year-old mother, and her unborn child.

As reported on News Center 7 at 6, the double homicide shocked the Dayton community.

Police have identified Nico Cunigan Jr. as the suspect, but he has not been spotted since the crime.

“It’s more stressful, it’s more irritating,” Jennifer Louis, the mother of 16-year-old Deante Johnson said.

Louis lost her son in the shooting.

She can’t believe a month has gone by without anyone in custody.

“This man did a heinous act, a heinous act towards an unborn child, a mother a teenager and y’all still have not found him,” Louis said.

Louis wore a necklace with Precious Taste’s picture on it, the 32-year-old pregnant mother who was also killed in the shooting.

“Everybody needs to do their job, get the US Marshals if you need to, get the help you need to find this man because if he killed three people, he’ll kill more,” Louis said.
