Adam Gautreau, 36, was shot to death on November 14, 2020, near Empire Central and N. Stemmons Freeway in Dallas. Homeless at the time, he was struck nine times around 8:30 p.m. and was one of four victims in a series of random shootings across North Texas over several weeks that terrorized the community.

Investigators identified 31-year-old Jeremy Harris as the lead suspect in this string of random killings; Harris was charged in multiple murders, including Gautreau’s. Harris was later sentenced to life in prison without parole after pleading guilty to four murders and multiple shootings. Gautreau’s family and friends remembered him as a wonderful person who would never hurt a soul.
