Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan and Lowell Police Superintendent Kelly Richardson have confirmed the identity of the victim of a homicide that occurred on Llewelyn Street in Lowell as Dejah Jenkins-Minus, 22 of Boston.

On November 26, 2021, at approximately 10:45 a.m., Lowell Police responded to a residence on Llewelyn Street to conduct a well-being check at the request of a person known to Dejah Jenkins-Minus. Officers found her body inside the residence with signs of apparent trauma. EMS responded to the scene and pronounced her dead.
