In the Bland Street shooting investigation, Ferrell states Lilly picked Stephen's photo from a 15-image lineup including Street's old long‑haired picture. Three .380 shell casings were found at the scene, with Stephenson detained and later linked to a pistol found wrapped in a shirt. Stephenson claimed involvement only to aid detectives, and a cocaine deal motive is cited.
