Her brother died in the gunfire, and so did 22-year-old Jamarcus Irving.
Investigators shared about a month after the killings.
On Monday, nearly 15 months into the capital murder investigation, Dallas police said detectives have no reportable updates.
Smith said she tries to focus on what she can control, like wearing the blue and silver of the Dallas Cowboys, Morland’s favorite team, to mark what would’ve been his 53rd birthday on March 11.
“We deal with this every day,” Smith said. “I know somebody knows something. It’s OK to be scared but after all this time, I feel like you should be able to say, ‘This is wrong.’”
A $5,000 Crime Stoppers reward, set up days after the killings for information leading to an arrest and indictment of suspects, is still active. Anyone with information can call Crime Stoppers at 214-373-TIPS (8477), 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
