Summary

It was Black Friday 2012, and 17-year-old Jordan Davis was sitting with friends in a parked car outside a gas station in Jacksonville, Florida. They were playing loud music, while waiting for their friend, who had gone inside the store. Within minutes, gunshots rang out and Jordan was shot and killed.
