Rashay L. Garrison, known by his stage name Shay Baby, was a 29-year-old rapper from Gainesville, Florida, who was killed in a drive-by shooting on May 2, 2016. Garrison had been released from prison in January 2016 and was pursuing music as a way out of street life. Two days before the shooting he posted a YouTube video titled Cold Outchea that drew thousands of views and, according to reports, offended at least one person.

Authorities say Ishmael Daniels, a childhood friend, followed Garrison’s rented Dodge Charger on the morning of May 2 and fired more than ten rounds from a high-powered rifle into the vehicle. Garrison was struck multiple times and died; a passenger suffered minor injuries. Daniels was arrested and charged with first-degree murder, attempted murder, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. Another man, Daniel Nicholas Winter, was charged as an accessory after the fact and with tampering with evidence after reportedly helping clean the rental car with bleach.

The case has seen delays and pretrial dispute, and Daniels remained in custody on a $1.5 million bond as the legal process continued. Hundreds attended Garrison’s funeral, and a video tribute to his life was posted online.
