Lashonda Sharreice Childs was 17 when she was shot and killed in Dayton, Ohio, on October 3, 2018. Born October 5, 2000, she had started a small beauty business, Beauty Bender LLC, and was remembered by family and friends for her vibrant spirit and devotion to loved ones.

The coroner ruled her death a homicide from a gunshot wound to the head. Lashonda had been in a troubled relationship with a much older man, Trendell Goodwin, and had obtained a restraining order after prior incidents of abuse that reportedly included biting and hitting. On the day she died she called 911 to report his threats and that he had a gun; she was nonetheless shot.

Goodwin was arrested shortly after the shooting and charged with felonious assault. Does anyone have memories of Lashonda or information about what happened that day that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
