Tanisha Jene Jackson, a 32-year-old African American woman, was shot to death at her home in Chicago’s South Shore neighborhood on March 26, 2017. Court documents state she was shot multiple times at point-blank range, allegedly by her 17-year-old son, Davion Pryor, who was charged with first-degree murder. Reports say the shooting occurred in front of her husband and a younger son; neighbors heard multiple gunshots and police recovered a firearm and shell casings at the scene.

Davion Pryor reportedly turned himself in and was charged as an adult. Court filings described a history of mental health issues and medication noncompliance; the judge ordered a mental health evaluation. Davion also had two pending juvenile cases for aggravated battery and vehicular hijacking and was on home confinement at the time.

If anyone knew Tanisha or has information about what happened that night, please share what can help the investigation or the family.
