Jermaine Deshay Aldridge, 31, of Texarkana, Texas, was fatally shot in the parking lot of a Chili’s restaurant in Texarkana on December 30, 2020. Investigators later tied the killing to a gang-related murder-for-hire plot organized by members of the Loyalty Cash Business (LCB) gang.

Alexander and another man reportedly traveled from Memphis to Texarkana to shoot Aldridge and then fled back to Memphis. Alexander was arrested, convicted of capital murder and other charges, and sentenced to life without the possibility of parole. The LCB leader who ordered the killing believed Aldridge had stolen $100,000 in drug money and received a 40-year prison sentence for his role. Several other LCB members were arrested and charged in connection with this murder and related crimes.

The case illustrates a coordinated, interstate murder-for-hire tied to broader violent activity by the LCB gang. If anyone knew Jermaine Aldridge, his movements that day, or the people who were in the Chili’s parking lot on December 30, 2020, please share what is known.
