Latrell Grandberry, 26, was found shot to death inside a car on the 4700 block of Manson Road in Memphis on December 21, 2020. The killing prompted an active investigation by local authorities into the circumstances of the shooting.

Investigators identified two men, Desmond Emery and Jonathan Rush, both 21 at the time, as persons of interest. A search warrant executed at a Grosvenor Avenue residence yielded weapons and vehicles believed to be connected to the case; those items were seized and used to link the two men to the fatal shooting.

Emery and Rush were taken into custody and charged with first-degree murder in Grandberry’s death. They also faced theft of property and several weapons charges; Rush was additionally charged as a convicted felon in possession of a firearm.
