Cody Johns, 24, was shot dead in her Houston home on May 20, 2020, while seven months pregnant. Her unborn baby also did not survive the attack.

Thomas reportedly shot Cody’s sister and mother multiple times before leaving; both were hospitalized in serious but stable condition and expected to recover. The report says Thomas then went to the home of Cody’s new boyfriend, James Bass, and shot him twice before apparently taking his own life after a brief standoff with police. The motive and the identity of the unborn child’s father are described as unknown.

No additional suspects have been identified. Anyone with information about what happened that day or who knew Cody, her family, or the people involved is asked to come forward.
