Dolly Meyers, 28, was shot in the back and killed with a 12-gauge shotgun inside a trailer in Oakdale, Tennessee, in December 2015. Three children, aged 16, 14, and three, were in a bedroom of the home when the shooting occurred. Prior to the fatal shooting, Dolly and her boyfriend, Erskine Andy Hunt Jr., had reportedly argued at the residence of her mother and were asked to leave.

Authorities identified Hunt as the suspect and moved to revoke his bond on unrelated pending charges in Roane and Loudon counties. A judge ordered revocation of his existing bond and he was taken into custody in the Loudon County Jail. A Morgan County grand jury later returned charges in the case.

Hunt was convicted by a Morgan County jury of second-degree murder, unlawful possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, attempted unlawful possession of a firearm by a convicted felon, and two counts of reckless endangerment; he also pleaded guilty to an additional unlawful possession count. The court imposed an effective sentence of 33 years. Does anyone have information about Dolly’s life in Oakdale or the children who were present that morning?
