Tamara Cornelius, 31 and four months pregnant, was shot to death in the parking lot of an Exxon on North Gulph Road after an argument earlier that evening at the Cheesecake Factory in King of Prussia Mall. She had been trying to end a tumultuous relationship with her ex-boyfriend, Rafiq Thompson, and had told him she was pregnant. Surveillance shows Thompson followed her from the mall, pulled in behind her with his headlights off, approached while she pumped gas, and fatally shot her multiple times as she tried to flee. Cornelius was taken to Paoli Hospital, where she was pronounced dead.

Investigators identified 38-year-old Rafiq Thompson as the primary suspect, and he later turned himself in. He was charged with two counts of first-degree murder for Cornelius and the unborn child, plus illegal gun offenses; records show he was on parole at the time for a 2018 aggravated assault against a different former girlfriend. Does anyone have information about Tamara’s movements that evening or about Thompson’s interactions with her in the days before April 8, 2022?
