TaNesha Hardy, a 36-year-old African American woman, was killed on May 23, 2018, in Clarksville, Tennessee. She was an innocent bystander and a passenger on Mitchell Street when another vehicle pulled alongside and opened fire with an AK-47. Hardy was struck twice and later died from her wounds; the gunfire was aimed at someone else as part of a revenge plot tied to a prior shooting at the gunman’s mother’s home.

Investigators identified Timothy Elijah Ogburn, a 27-year-old childhood acquaintance of Hardy’s, as the shooter. He was arrested the same day in Oak Grove, Kentucky, initially on an unrelated weapons charge, and was later extradited to Clarksville. A grand jury indicted him in October 2018 for Hardy’s murder and related counts. The case resulted in convictions for first-degree premeditated murder, attempted murder of other vehicle occupants, and use of a firearm in a dangerous felony, with a sentence of life plus additional years.

If anyone knew TaNesha Hardy, her movements that afternoon, or has information about the events on Mitchell Street, please share what is known.
