CHARLOTTE, N.C. — A man who was already facing murder charges for a shooting in Charlotte earlier this year is now a suspect in the killing of a man in Steele Creek last August, detectives said.
Jorge David Flores-Palma was charged with murder in connection with the killing of 25-year-old Keventz Sidney-Nesta Harris on Aug. 27, 2022. Harris was found dead in the commons area of an apartment complex in southwest Charlotte.
Flores-Palma was already in jail on multiple charges, including murder, for a second deadly shooting in southwest Charlotte that happened in March. He's been in the custody of the Mecklenburg County Sheriff's Office since his arrest on April 3. Flores-Palma is now charged with murder for the shooting of Harris.

Note: WCNC instituted a policy in March 2021 regarding the broadcast or posting of mugshots.
WCNC will only air or post a mugshot if the person has been formally charged with a crime and in a few other cases. The exceptions include: If it appears the person could be a danger to themselves or others or if they are wanted by authorities; to differentiate between people with a common name; if the photos could encourage more victims to come forward. The news-editorial leadership may also decide to use a mugshot based on the severity of the crime(s) committed and/or the level of public interest in the crime and ensuing criminal proceedings.
