In late October 2023, 19-year-old Shaliyah Collins of Savannah, Georgia, was shot to death and her body found in a marshy area beneath the Truman Parkway. Collins had been living with her boyfriend, Kewan Crawford; the couple had obtained a marriage license about a month before the killings and were planning their future together.

Police discovered the body of 48-year-old Phillip Mock on the roadway of Truman Parkway around 12:20 a.m. on October 27, 2023; he had been shot after stopping to assist a vehicle on the side of the road while on his way to pick up his daughter. Investigators say Collins and Mock did not know each other. Authorities identified Derek Maurice Johnson, the boyfriend’s stepfather, as a suspect and arrested him in St. Petersburg, Florida, two days later; he was brought back to Chatham County and indicted on charges that include malice murder, felony murder, aggravated assault, and concealing the death of another, the latter alleging Collins’ body was thrown from an overpass into the marsh.

Are there details about Shaliyah’s last movements or anyone who saw a vehicle on the parkway that night that could help clarify what happened?
