James Davis was 24 and from Columbus, Ohio when he was killed on August 14, 2018. Investigators treated the death as a murder that occurred during what appeared to be a robbery attempt. Davis was shot and his body was later found in his vehicle.

Authorities say the shooting involved two people: Ashley Baldwin, 20 at the time, and Shannon Tackett, 34. Baldwin and Tackett were arrested and charged with aggravated murder and robbery. Prosecutors allege the two had planned to rob Davis because he was believed to be carrying several thousand dollars. Baldwin initially told police Davis was her husband and that the shooting happened during a drug deal gone wrong, a statement officers later found to be inconsistent with the evidence. Baldwin’s attorney argued she feared for her life and believed she faced imminent danger; bail for Baldwin was set at $85,000.

Davis’s family and friends described him as a young man with a promising future. Does anyone have information about the events leading up to the shooting or who knew Davis’s movements that day?
