Preston Paul Jass, 29, was fatally shot in the early morning hours of Sunday, May 8, 2022, in the parking lot of the 18 Thirty Apartments on Spring Branch Drive in Madison, Tennessee. He was found just after 3 a.m. Documents including social security cards and car titles were scattered near his body, and at least one nearby vehicle appeared to have been burglarized, a scene detail investigators described as consistent with a robbery gone wrong.

The investigation was led by Homicide Unit Detective Tyler Manivong. Over the following months detectives developed evidence identifying 26-year-old Trentaree Starling as a suspect. In March 2023 a grand jury returned an indictment charging Starling with second-degree murder, and detectives with the TITANS unit arrested him and jailed him in lieu of a $100,000 bond pending a Criminal Court hearing.

Does anyone have information about Preston, the 18 Thirty Apartments complex, or the events of that night that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
