In the late hours of a Sunday in December 2017, 33-year-old Tamika Trimble, an African-American mother of seven, was shot to death on Terry Mill Road in DeKalb County, Georgia. Trimble was driving with her one-year-old daughter in the backseat when at least two assailants opened fire; evidence suggested the shooters pursued her and fired from two separate locations. Neighbors reported hearing multiple shots, one recalling seven or eight rounds. Investigators recovered an AR-15 and a handgun at the scene. Miraculously, the child was unharmed despite the car being struck from multiple angles.

Trimble’s family said she was driving an unfamiliar car that day and relatives voiced concern the killing could have been a case of mistaken identity. The family’s public pleas included a request that a 17-year-old who was reported to be involved surrender to authorities. No arrests were ever made in connection with Tamika Trimble’s murder, and the case remains unsolved.

If anyone has information about the shooting on Terry Mill Road in December 2017, please come forward.
