Malik McCormick fatally shot his pregnant partner in December of 2022 at the 5600 block of Woodmont Avenue

Baltimore, Md. (January 13, 2025) - “This case powerfully conveys the tragic consequences of intimate partner violence, representing an unimaginable loss for the loved ones of Jaymyra Burrell. I applaud ASA Megan Gallo for securing a guilty plea from the defendant, resulting in a lengthy sentence that will spare the family the additional trauma of a trial. While this resolution cannot reverse the harm inflicted, it stands as an essential step toward healing and ensuring that justice is served for both Ms. Burrell and her unborn child.” - Ivan J. Bates, State’s Attorney
