Tamia Alexandria Sanders was 14 when she was killed outside her home on West 38th Street in Jacksonville, Florida, on August 12, 2016. A student at Robert E. Lee High School, she was struck in the head by gunfire during an argument and died instantly; three other people were wounded.

The shooting followed the arrival of Bryan Keefe Goggins Jr., who had been called to the scene by his mother. Goggins, a convicted felon, began firing and was later arrested and charged with second-degree murder, three counts of attempted second-degree murder, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. During a controlled call with his mother he made statements admitting to the shooting but saying he did not know who was in front of him. Two surviving victims positively identified him at trial.

In November 2019 a Duval County jury found Goggins guilty of all charges after about 75 minutes of deliberation; sentencing was set for December 9, 2019. Does anyone have memories of Tamia or information that could add to the record of what happened that day?
