Chasity Tacquiana Jackson, a 38-year-old registered nurse and mother of five in Saginaw, Michigan, was shot to death at her home in the 3500 block of Studor Road in Bridgeport Township on the morning of March 28, 2024. Police were called shortly before 8 a.m. after one of Jackson’s children reported their mother had been shot. Officers found Jackson deceased from gunshot wounds; her 17-year-old son had also been shot in the abdomen while trying to shield her and was taken to a local hospital in critical condition. Younger children, including one as young as two, were in the home but were not physically harmed.

Investigators identified Jackson’s estranged husband, 42-year-old Bryant Anthony Brown, as the suspect; a court order was in place requiring him to stay away from the home after Jackson had recently asked for a divorce. Brown fled but was located and arrested around 11:30 a.m. the same day by U.S. Marshals and Ohio troopers on I-75 in Wood County, Ohio, and extradited to Michigan to face charges including open murder, assault with intent to cause great bodily harm, and weapons offenses. A preliminary hearing included testimony from the injured 17-year-old and a judge bound the case over for trial.

Does anyone have information about Chasity’s life in Saginaw or knew her through caregiving or family connections?
