On the night of January 20, 2017, 20-year-old Christopher Woodard, a Black male, was killed in a daylight-style drive-by shooting on East 12th Street in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Woodard was riding in a vehicle with 23-year-old Jumoke Johnson Jr. when another car pulled alongside and shots were fired; both men were struck and later died, and their vehicle crashed after the attack. At the time, Woodard was out on bond facing robbery charges.

The Chattanooga Police Department treated the double homicide as brazen and initially pursued leads that suggested a gang-related motive; the shooters fled the scene and no immediate arrests were announced. The investigation stalled for a time, leaving the families without answers.

Years later investigators arrested Jerome L. McCullough and charged him with two counts of first-degree murder in connection with the shooting. McCullough was tried, found guilty by a jury of first-degree murder for both Woodard and Johnson, and subsequently sentenced.

Did anyone in the community know Woodard’s routines or see either car that night who might add details to the timeline?
