On the late afternoon of August 28, 2020, 26-year-old Ashley Richardson Carter, a Black woman, was found shot multiple times inside a Nissan Maxima in the parking lot of the Fairview Inn and Suites in Memphis. Another victim, Waquel Richardson, was discovered in the hotel lobby, also dead of multiple gunshot wounds. Ashley Richardson Carter was the daughter of Darnell Carlton, known as Crunchy Black, formerly of Three 6 Mafia.

Surveillance footage led investigators to a gold Chevrolet Tahoe with a distinctive rear bumper. That vehicle was located days later on Andy Road. Police found Lamont Murry hiding in the attic of a nearby home; the Tahoe’s owner said Murry had the vehicle the day of the shootings and had tried to spray paint the bumper after returning. Murry later confessed and said the killings were gang retaliation for a double homicide on August 14. He was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and tampering with evidence, but initial charges were dismissed in October 2020. A grand jury returned an indictment in June 2021, and Murry was not taken into custody on that indictment until his arrest on an unrelated murder in November 2021.

Did anyone in the Memphis area see the gold Tahoe or note its distinctive bumper around August 28, 2020?
