Jacob Andrew Turner, 24, was shot and killed on February 23, 2022, during what investigators say was a drug transaction at a Murphy gas station near 710 E. Ben White Blvd in Austin. Turner's body was found face-down with pills scattered nearby; authorities believe the pills were suspected of being laced with fentanyl and note Turner had a history of opiate abuse.

Police say a price dispute during the deal led 19-year-old Sevon Herman Randle to pull a handgun and shoot Turner. Randle was arrested, found in possession of the firearm, and charged with capital murder; a friend who had initially been charged later cooperated and identified Randle as the shooter.

Turner is remembered by family and friends as a talented musician, artist, and a loving father to his baby daughter. Does anyone who knew Jacob or has information about the case have anything to share with investigators?
