Candid Sanders, a 36-year-old Black woman, was found shot to death inside a car near the intersection of Imogene Street and Dwight Road in Memphis on January 10, 2019. Ronald Terry, identified as a former leader of the Vice Lords gang, was also found dead in the vehicle. The circumstances of the double homicide were initially unclear and no arrests were announced at the time, leaving the community without answers.

Investigators later tied the killings to a broader federal probe into the Unknown Vice Lords – Ghost Mob that formed part of the Department of Justice’s Violent Crime Initiative. A superseding federal indictment returned in February 2024 charged three men in connection with causing a death by firearm during and in relation to a crime of violence, alleging the motive was to gain or maintain status within the gang. Court filings from later proceedings indicated the murders of Terry and Sanders set off a chain of events leading to federal action against the gang.

Did anyone in the Memphis area know Candid Sanders or have information about where she was the night of January 10, 2019?
