Jimmy Alan Pearson, 63, was found dead in his Milwaukie, Oregon, home on March 3, 2021. Pearson, born August 19, 1957, in Dearborn, Michigan, owned the A1 Hawk pawn shop chain and was a familiar local businessman.

Investigators identified 24-year-old Nistasha Rose Tate, also known as Nitasha, as the primary suspect. Court documents charged Tate with second-degree murder and first-degree robbery, alleging she killed Pearson and stole from his home. Authorities say evidence gathered during the investigation tied her to the crime and led to her arrest.

The circumstances reported point to a violent incident followed by theft, and formal charges were filed reflecting those allegations. Does anyone have information about Pearson’s activities in Milwaukie or about contacts he may have had in early March 2021?
