Tina Renee Medlin, 50, of Benson, North Carolina, died on July 8, 2017, after an officer-involved shooting on Interstate 40. Trooper J.L. Taylor and Johnston County Deputy Taylor Davis responded after the North Carolina Highway Patrol and Johnston County Sheriff’s Office went to a single-vehicle crash in the westbound lanes. Witnesses reported Medlin was inside the wrecked SUV with a gun and voiced suicidal intentions. Medlin was critically injured and later died at WakeMed.

The State Bureau of Investigation opened a probe and asked for anyone who had contact with Medlin the evening before the crash to come forward. The two officers were placed on administrative leave. Dash-cam footage and 911 calls were part of the investigation. In August 2017 the District Attorney concluded the officers were justified in using lethal force. Medlin’s family remembered her as loving and generous who struggled with mental health issues. Did anyone know Medlin or have information about her movements the evening before July 8, 2017?
