Jasmine Fields, 26, was killed October 3, 2019, in Prichard, Alabama, in an incident described by authorities as a domestic violence-related murder-suicide. Fields, a mother of two young children ages five and seven, had been leaving her ex-boyfriend, 24-year-old Tyvontae Johnson, and was at a friend’s home on Bellmeade Drive with her packed belongings when Johnson arrived. He chased Fields around a car and shot her multiple times; the children witnessed the attack from inside a vehicle. Johnson then fatally shot himself.

A close friend, Sameka Stabler, tried to intervene and was critically wounded by a chest gunshot. Stabler initially survived and was hospitalized, but on October 23, 2019 she was later found in her car on the side of an interstate in Mobile with multiple gunshot wounds and died. Before she died, Stabler identified her attacker as 19-year-old Tremaine Johnson, who was arrested and charged in her killing. The Mobile Child Advocacy Center provided counseling for Fields’s children after the shootings.

If anyone knew Jasmine, Sameka, or their families, or has information about either shooting, please share what is known.
