Randy George Lands, a 44-year-old man with a learning disability who was described as loving his family and enjoying life, was fatally shot inside the East Knox County home he shared with his mother on May 9, 2014. His mother, Loretta Lands, and his sister, Rebecca Garner, returning from a visit, were confronted at gunpoint by an intruder identified as Jeffery Willard Wooten. The intruder took keys, a purse, a cellphone, and the family vehicle before fleeing in the stolen SUV.

A short time later deputies located the stolen SUV and a multi-county high-speed pursuit ended in West Knox County when officers forced the vehicle off Lovell Road and the driver was taken into custody. The van Wooten had used to get to the house was left behind containing items stolen from the residence. In February 2016 a jury found Jeffery Willard Wooten guilty of first-degree murder, especially aggravated burglary, especially aggravated robbery, and carjacking; the jury imposed life without parole.

Does anyone have memories of Randy or information about the events that night that could add context to what happened?
