James Edward Tennant, 39, was one of three men shot to death just after 9 p.m. on December 13, 2019, in the Flour Bluff neighborhood of Corpus Christi near the Naval Air Station-Corpus Christi. Police responding to the 500 block of Claride Drive found Tennant and two other victims, 49-year-old John Wayne Hughes and 59-year-old Steven Romine, all with gunshot wounds. The Nueces County Medical Examiner confirmed the identities and cause of death as gunshot wounds.

Investigators rapidly identified two suspects: 29-year-old Benjamin Lebleu and 27-year-old Miles Dingman. Both were arrested and charged with capital murder and tampering with evidence; court documents state they were involved in the shooting and that prosecutors are not seeking the death penalty. The killings devastated the local community and prompted a multi-agency response.
