Bettie Jenifer, 44, was shot dead in front of about 10 witnesses on May 10 as she walked from the employment agency she owned.

Greenbelt police said a gunman chased her down in the parking lot, shot her in front of witnesses and ran off.

The police released the sketch Friday. They haven鈥檛 named a suspect or a motive yet.

Jenifer married Ghanaian actor Chris Attoh last October. She was still in the process of divorcing Kedrick Jenifer, a convicted Baltimore-area drug dealer serving a 20-year sentence in federal prison, whose house in Bowie she was reportedly living in.

鈥淥ur investigators do not believe this was random,鈥 police department spokesman George Mathews told The Associated Press at the time. 鈥淚t was very brazen 鈥 it happened in broad daylight in front of multiple witnesses.鈥

The Associated Press contributed to this report.
