On May 27, 2016, 14-year-old Ladarrius Gentry was fatally shot at the Knollcrest apartment complex on Creekwood Drive in Nashville while at his cousin’s home. Reports state an argument over a purported drug transaction escalated; Gentry was shot multiple times in the chest and back as he tried to flee.

The next day a 25-year-old Smyrna woman, Shatara Evette Jones, turned herself in and confessed, saying she had gone to buy pills from Gentry, received a bag, then produced a handgun and opened fire. A witness, Tondrick Chandler, who had driven Jones to the scene, told police Jones continued shooting as Gentry ran.

Jones was charged with murder, convicted of first-degree murder, and received a mandatory life sentence. An appeal challenging suppression rulings, cellphone data and excluded victim-related evidence was filed and the appellate court affirmed the trial court’s judgment. Does anyone have information about Ladarrius’s last movements at Knollcrest or eyewitness details that could add context to what happened?
