Sade Carrie Garner, 32, was shot and killed on February 23, 2019, at her family home in northeast Columbus. Police found her lying in the driveway early that morning; she was pronounced dead at the scene. Lawrence, 35, was later indicted on two counts of murder with firearm specifications, including a count that noted Garner was pregnant at the time of her death.

Garner was described as outgoing, worked as a bartender and was active in community activities. Her death was reported as the 13th homicide in Columbus in 2019. Family members were said to have expressed forgiveness and a desire to support Lawrence through the legal process. The case raises questions about what led to the fatal confrontation and how the family is coping.
