Night Watch: Shot Through a Closed Door: The Ajike Owens Case

In a courtyard where kids gathered to play, resentment turned deadly. Ajike “AJ” Owens had spent years navigating a neighbor who hurled slurs, made threats, and called police anytime the children stepped outside. After that neighbor injured AJ’s son with a roller skate, AJ walked to her door demanding answers. Susan Lorincz responded with a bullet fired through a locked door. Katie breaks down the case that rejected “stand your ground,” the 25-year sentence, and Netflix’s “The Perfect Neighbor” documentary, which used bodycam footage to show the truth behind the tragedy.
