On the evening of October 24, 2018, 66-year-old Beverly Jacks was shot to death in the 1300 block of Wabash in South Memphis while her 9-year-old grandson sat unharmed in the backseat of her car. Officers found Jacks inside the vehicle with gunshot wounds to her head and torso. Witnesses reported men pulled up in a vehicle armed with assault rifles and opened fire.

The victim was described by her daughter, Marnette Todd, as a loving, giving Christian who enjoyed dancing at her church. The investigation identified three suspects. Marlo Bemley was named as the person who shot and killed Jacks; Bemley, Alfonzo Kennedy and Cortez Graham were charged with first-degree murder and criminal attempt to commit a felony with first-degree murder. Two of the men were arrested during a multi-officer crime saturation operation.

Did anyone in South Memphis see the vehicle or the shooters that night or have information about what led up to this attack?
