On the evening of March 15, 2014, 21-year-old Justin Tyler Roake was driving on Ellington Parkway in Nashville when someone in a dark-colored SUV fired through the vehicle, striking him in the head and causing his car to crash. Metro Nashville Police Department opened a homicide investigation that later identified two suspects, Antonio Porter and Barry Eugene Moore.

A Davidson County grand jury indicted both men on first-degree murder charges in August 2014. Antonio Porter, then 21, was arrested on August 11, 2014. Barry Moore evaded capture for more than a year and was placed on the Tennessee Bureau of Investigation’s Top Ten Most Wanted; he was arrested in a garage on Augusta Way in Nashville on September 24, 2015. Investigators say Moore was the SUV driver who fired the shots.

Court action followed: Porter pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and received a 15-year sentence; Moore was convicted of first-degree murder and sentenced to life in prison. Did anyone who knew Justin or saw activity on Ellington Parkway that night come forward with information?
