Omie Jackson was a 26-year-old woman from Los Angeles who was fatally shot on the evening of February 28, 2020, near 42nd Street and South Western Avenue in the Vermont Square neighborhood. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner-Coroner recorded her death as a homicide; she died at the scene despite efforts to save her.

The Los Angeles Police Department canvassed the area, reviewed surveillance footage, and collected forensic evidence while appealing to the public for tips. Detectives developed lines of inquiry that included the possibility of a personal dispute or gang-related activity, but those theories remained unproven. A reward was offered for information leading to an arrest, yet no arrests have been reported and the investigation remains open.

If anyone witnessed the shooting or has information that could help bring Omie’s killer to justice, contact the LAPD or submit a tip to the investigators handling the case.
