Tyana Thomas was 31 and five months pregnant when she died in September 2020 in Opelousas, Louisiana. A heated argument at the home of her boyfriend, 24-year-old Maleke Guillory, involved Thomas, Guillory and another woman. Thomas went into the house and retrieved a handgun; a struggle over the weapon with Guillory ended when the gun discharged and a bullet struck Thomas in the shoulder area, causing fatal internal injuries that killed her and her unborn child.

Officers determined the shooting was not a drive-by. Guillory was arrested and charged with two counts of negligent homicide. Investigators also reported someone had tried to clean the scene at Guillory’s home after the shooting and that a 9-year-old boy reportedly witnessed the event.

Does anyone have further information about Tyana or the people involved that could help clarify what happened?
