Shaneka Harvell, 33, was shot and killed on the evening of October 6, 2020, at a residence on Prospect Street in Memphis, Tennessee. The case quickly focused on Timmie Cooperwood, also known as Terrence Cooperwood, a man with whom Harvell shared children.

A first-degree murder warrant for Cooperwood was issued on October 9, 2020. He was also wanted on outstanding warrants for aggravated stalking, aggravated assault, aggravated burglary, and being a convicted felon in possession of a handgun. The U.S. Marshals Service described him as armed and dangerous as they sought public assistance locating him.

After a months-long manhunt, Cooperwood was located and taken into custody without incident by the U.S. Marshals Gulf Coast Regional Fugitive Task Force at a residence in St. Cloud, Minnesota, at the end of December 2020. The investigation then moved into the courtroom phase.

If anyone knew Shaneka, the household on Prospect Street, or has information about her last evening, please come forward.
