On June 5, 2016, 24-year-old Frederick Jeremy Babb of Simpsonville was found in a driveway on Black Road in southern Greenville County, South Carolina, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. Babb, known to friends and family as Jeremy, used his cell phone to call 911 and reported he had been shot, but he died at the scene.

Investigators said Babb may have been lured to that location by someone he knew. His father, Frederick W. Babb, told the press he believed his son had been set up and possibly targeted for robbery, although a significant amount of money was reportedly found on the victim. The shooting echoed a family tragedy: Jeremy’s cousin had been killed in a similar act of gun violence in Greenville about thirty years earlier.

The Greenville County Sheriff’s Office identified and arrested a suspect. Nineteen-year-old Tony Curtis Pepper Jr. was charged with murder and possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime and held at the Greenville County Detention Center without bond; investigators said the probe remained open regarding possible additional suspects.

Did anyone in the area see Jeremy that day or know why he might have been asked to meet on Black Road?
