Emily Renee Nash, 28, was found dead in her Springdale, Arkansas apartment on West Bailey Avenue on the morning of May 27, 2015. A family member who had not heard from her discovered that she had suffered a gunshot wound. An autopsy and the Springdale Police Department’s investigation ruled the death a homicide and concluded the wound was not self-inflicted despite apparent staging intended to suggest suicide.

Investigators focused on a person of interest, Antoine Jackson, who had been living with Nash. Reports say Jackson was an absconder from parole; a witness told police Jackson had threatened to shoot Emily two days before she was found, and Jackson admitted to choking her during an argument weeks earlier. Forensic testing reportedly linked Jackson to the crime, with his fingerprints and DNA found on the murder weapon and on Nash’s remains. In November 2015 Jackson was arrested and charged in connection with the killing.

If anyone knew Emily, lived near West Bailey Avenue, or has information about her final days, please come forward.
