Betty Tice Turner, 62, was shot and killed on January 12, 2015, inside J.T. Tire, the family-owned business on East Geer Street in Durham, North Carolina. Betty co-owned the shop with her husband, John Turner, who had been wounded in a separate shooting at the same location in March 2012 when five people were shot and two died.

The shooter was Betty’s daughter, Rebekah Turner Maxwell, 38 at the time; she was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and held without bond. Investigators did not specify what led to the incident, though reports noted Rebekah had struggled with mental illness and had recently separated from her husband. The 2012 tire-shop attack left John Turner among the wounded and led to charges against a different suspect, O’Brian McNeil White.

Betty was remembered as a generous community member who often made cakes and desserts for friends and family. Does anyone have information about Betty, Rebekah, or the family’s history that could help clarify what happened that day?
