Travis Tatum was 20 and a resident of Riviera Beach, Florida, when he was shot in the courtyard of the Stonybrook apartment complex on October 12, 2014, shortly before 10:30 a.m. He was taken to a hospital but died soon afterward. Witnesses said Raymond Dale stood over Tatum and shot him; Dale was arrested within two days. In April 2015 the state dropped all charges against Dale, leaving the shooting unresolved.

Tatum’s mother, Jennifer Vanhorn-Jenkins, later filed a wrongful death lawsuit in Palm Beach County Circuit Court against the owners of the Stonybrook complex, alleging the property was not properly managed or secured and that this contributed to her son’s death. The case raises questions about security at the complex and accountability for what happened that morning.

If anyone knew Travis, saw the courtyard at Stonybrook on October 12, 2014, or has information about the shooting, please share what is known.
