Karen Pearce, 44, was shot and killed in Decatur, Georgia, on the night of Saturday, December 6, 2014. She had been out with friends at a downtown restaurant and was walking to her car when witnesses heard a gunshot near the parking deck behind One Decatur Town Center on East Ponce de Leon Avenue. A person leaving the parking structure discovered her body around 11 p.m.

Authorities from the Decatur Police and the Georgia Bureau of Investigation treated the death as a homicide after determining Pearce had been fatally shot. Pearce worked as a hairstylist at True Hair Salon & Spa in Marietta and was also studying toward a nursing degree; friends described her as hardworking and without known enemies. Police investigated whether she had been specifically targeted or was the victim of a random act of violence.

Within days investigators identified a suspect, Aeman Lovel Presley, 34, who was arrested December 11, 2014, by MARTA police on an unrelated offense and was found in possession of a revolver and ammunition later tied ballistically to Pearce’s killing. During questioning Presley confessed to shooting Pearce, and detectives said Pearce’s wallet had been taken after the murder.

Does anyone have information about Pearce’s movements that night or recalls seeing her near One Decatur Town Center?
