Johnnie L. Mosley, 64, of Lauderdale, Mississippi, was fatally shot on Christmas Eve, December 24, 2024, and died of his injuries on December 26, 2024, at the University of Mississippi Medical Center in Jackson. Two other people wounded in the same shooting also died: 48-year-old Shunda Faye Brown of the Porterville community and 15-year-old Treyvone Young, a Northeast Lauderdale student who was one day short of his sixteenth birthday.

Authorities arrested 50-year-old Joseph Spinx of Toomsuba in connection with the killings. Spinx was initially charged with one count of murder and two counts of attempted murder; those counts were later upgraded to three counts of murder after all three victims died. Spinx was reportedly out on bond for felony DUI at the time; his bond has been revoked and he remains in custody at the Lauderdale County Detention Facility. Law enforcement has said there may be another person of interest and the investigation is ongoing.

Funeral services for Johnnie Mosley were held January 18, 2025, at Mt. Olive Missionary Baptist Church in Lauderdale, with burial in the church cemetery. Does anyone have information about the shooting or knew Johnnie Mosley that could help the investigation?
