Ethan J. Miller, a 20-year-old White male from Lewisburg, Tennessee, was fatally shot on the night of December 4, 2022. Officers were dispatched at about 9:46 p.m. to a shooting near 1000 Cheryl Drive and found Miller on the ground with multiple gunshot wounds; he was taken to Marshall Medical Center and later died from his injuries. The Lewisburg Police Department led the homicide investigation with assistance from the Marshall County Sheriff’s Office.

Investigators identified Brandon Michael Schklar, then described as 18, as a suspect and took him into custody shortly after the shooting. A Marshall County grand jury later indicted Schklar for first-degree murder and coercion of a witness. Schklar pleaded guilty on March 11, 2024, to the lesser included offense of second-degree murder; the coercion charge was dismissed and the court imposed a 32-year sentence to be served at 100 percent. Post-conviction filings alleging ineffective assistance of counsel were dismissed on procedural grounds, and appellate courts left the conviction and sentence in place.

No other suspect is identified in the court record. Does anyone have information about Miller’s last known movements or what led to the confrontation that ended his life?
