Corey Damoan Robinson was 36 when he was found dead on June 14, 2024, in his Fourth Ward Uptown condo in Charlotte, North Carolina. His sister Skylar McClendon discovered the scene after his manager called their mother because he had not shown up for work for two days. Officers responding to a welfare check at the North Graham Street residence around 2:00 p.m. found Corey on the kitchen floor; an investigation determined he had been beaten and died from blunt force trauma. His dog, Yoshi, had been tied up outside and his car was missing.

The death was officially classified as a homicide on July 2, 2024. Subsequent arrests were made in multiple states: 37-year-old Lasha Lynne Big Eagle was arrested in Scottsbluff, Nebraska on July 2 on charges of obtaining property by false pretense and identity theft; 24-year-old Ayyad Faour Sukkar was arrested in Memphis on July 5 on charges including murder, common law robbery, financial transaction card theft, and larceny of a motor vehicle; and 50-year-old Tracey Pinnix Sukkar was arrested in Charlotte on July 9 and faced the same charges as Big Eagle. Investigators say Corey's credit cards were used after his death.
