Jasper Taylor, 74, was one of three people fatally shot inside a home on Oxford Avenue in Dayton on August 10, 2016. The other victims named in reports are Tammy Cox, 53, and Michael Cox, 25. Authorities later arrested 61-year-old Muhammad Shabazz Ali and charged him with multiple counts related to the killings.

Earlier the same day Ali visited Day-Mont Behavioral Health Care exhibiting erratic behavior and demanding medication; staff called police and he was taken to Grandview Medical Center for evaluation. He was released from Grandview a few hours later, returned to Day-Mont with a handgun, and the shootings followed. Taylor’s family has filed suit seeking access to Ali’s medical records, alleging his release contributed to the deaths.

Prosecutors are pursuing multiple charges including murder against Ali; the investigation and pretrial process were still ongoing. Does anyone have information about Jasper Taylor, his life in Dayton, or the events that day?
