Julian Torres, 21, was shot behind Bob’s Discount Tobacco on Providence Boulevard in Clarksville, Tennessee on the night of May 19, 2018. Officers on patrol heard gunfire and found Torres with a gunshot wound; he was taken to the hospital and died the next day.

Investigators identified two suspects, both 27 at the time: Timothy Ogburn and Rasheem Lewis. Ogburn was extradited from Oak Grove, Kentucky, and charged with premeditated murder in June 2018; Lewis was indicted on first-degree murder charges in October 2018. Both were booked into the Montgomery County Jail. A key witness, Jamonte Pinkston, testified at trial that he was in the car with the defendants and saw Ogburn shoot Torres, but the defense challenged Pinkston’s changing statements.

The case went to a four-day jury trial in July 2021; after nearly five hours of deliberation the jury returned not guilty verdicts for both Ogburn and Lewis. Did anyone in Clarksville or who knew Julian come forward at the time with information that helped or contradicted witness accounts?
