Stephen Morgan, 45, was fatally shot at his home on Weaver Hollow Way in Powell, Tennessee on May 3, 2025. The death followed a domestic dispute with his 20-year-old girlfriend, Dsani Badgett, after she found messages on Morgan’s phone that she believed indicated an affair. Morgan had been using Badgett’s phone because his own was broken.

Police say the argument escalated when Morgan returned from work and Badgett reportedly brandished a firearm. Authorities allege Morgan tried to take the gun from her, a struggle ensued, and the weapon discharged, striking Morgan in the chest and hand. He was found unresponsive and pronounced dead at the scene.

Badgett was taken into custody and charged with first-degree murder; she was booked into the Roger D. Wilson Detention Facility and remains awaiting further legal proceedings. The investigation into the shooting is ongoing.

Did anyone in Powell know Morgan or Badgett and have information about their relationship or what happened that night?
