On January 22, 2016, Eddie James Tate Jr., 30, was shot and killed in an apartment complex parking lot in the 2100 block of Westchester Circle in Memphis while meeting a customer. His girlfriend, Edwina Thomas, also was shot, taken to a hospital in critical condition and later died. Thomas was reported to have been six to eight weeks pregnant; the unborn child did not survive. The meeting had been arranged as a business transaction: Tate sold hair extensions and had met the customer earlier that day.

Prosecutors say the investigation focused on an 18-year-old customer, Shelby Isaac, after a dispute over a prior purchase. Witnesses reported the shooter rifled through Tate’s pockets after the shooting. Victoria Seay, also 18, admitted she drove the getaway car and later was charged as an accessory after the fact. At trial a Memphis jury convicted Shelby Isaac of two counts of second-degree murder and one count of negligent homicide; she was sentenced to 30 years. Seay pleaded guilty to three counts of accessory after the fact and received six years of probation.

Did anyone in the area remember the meeting or the vehicles involved that afternoon?
