Jasmine Nicole Hines, 22, was fatally shot inside a home on Pinewood Drive in Chattanooga, Tennessee, in the early hours of Labor Day, September 5, 2016. The incident also killed 23-year-old Rashaud Taylor and left a third person injured. The Chattanooga Police Department responded and opened an investigation.

Jasmine grew up in the Chattanooga area, attended Ooltewah High School, later graduated from Hamilton County Adult High School, ran summer track with the Chattanooga Jetts and competed in the Junior Olympics. At the time of her death she worked at Convergys and was studying at Chattanooga State. Her family had already suffered another murder months earlier, a loss Jasmine had witnessed.

Authorities identified 32-year-old Stephen Mobley as the suspect; he was arrested and charged in connection with the shootings. Witnesses at trial described a heated altercation between Mobley and Jasmine and Rashaud that evening, and the prosecution said Mobley’s anger escalated into the shootings. Mobley was convicted and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Did anyone who knew Jasmine or Rashaud have information about their activities that night or the people they spent time with?
