On September 14, 2017, a Clarksville, Tennessee family was devastated by a brutal domestic homicide. Nine-month-old Jaylynn Mae Hazel, her 3-year-old brother Kayden Jay Hazel, and their mother, 23-year-old Keara Wynn Hazel, were killed at their Mills Drive home. The victims’ father and Keara’s husband, 27-year-old Jordan Hazel, admitted to law enforcement that he shot his wife, left the residence, then returned and fatally shot the two children.

Jordan Hazel was arrested and charged with three counts of first-degree premeditated murder. Memorial services for the family were held at the Pleasant Hill Freewill Baptist Church in Dover, Tennessee. The community was left reeling by the loss and the history of domestic violence that preceded it.

Did anyone in Clarksville have contact with the family or see signs of escalating violence before September 14, 2017?
