Charles Brown Tyree, 40, was shot and killed on January 22, 2017, in Duluth, Georgia. Tyree and 51-year-old Michael Liberty had gone to a Hopkins Mill Lane home to help a friend, David Jones, with a car. While the men were in the garage, 24-year-old Davon Dayron Jones entered, produced a handgun and fired two shots, striking both Tyree and Liberty in the head. Tyree died at the scene; Liberty later died at a hospital.

Jones fled but was turned in to police by his father the next morning and charged with two counts of felony murder and two counts of aggravated assault. At trial Jones claimed the shooting was accidental; an aunt said the men were gun enthusiasts and the gun may have discharged while being shown. Prosecutors introduced evidence they said showed Jones knew firearms, had taken safety classes, and that the bullet trajectories and Jones’s inconsistent statements were inconsistent with an accidental discharge.

In April 2018 a jury convicted Davon Jones of felony murder for both Tyree and Liberty and malice murder of Liberty, acquitting him on malice murder in Tyree’s death. Did anyone who knew Charles Tyree or was at that Hopkins Mill Lane address that night see something that hasn’t been shared publicly?
