A late-summer evening in Antioch, Tennessee, ended in deadly violence when 48-year-old Charles Peterson IV was shot and killed during a home invasion on August 30, 2014. Peterson had gone to the garage to check the circuit breaker after the power cut out; his mother heard gunfire while they were watching television. Two intruders then forced their way into the house, held Peterson’s mother at gunpoint, and ransacked the home. She attempted to flee to a neighbor’s house and was shot and injured by the intruders during her escape.

Investigators later identified one of the attackers as Jovan Spivey. In September 2017 a Nashville jury convicted the 28-year-old Spivey on six counts, including the first-degree murder of Charles Peterson IV, and on related robbery charges tied to an ATM incident that morning.

Are there readers who remember Antioch in 2014 or saw anything in the neighborhood that might shed more light on this home invasion?
