Tinesha Antovia Adams, 20, was shot and killed in North Las Vegas on December 13, 2015. She was about 20 weeks pregnant and had reported feeling fetal movement before the shooting. The episode began when Adams quarreled outside an Applebee’s with the father of her unborn child, Christian Cooper, who was on a date with another woman.

Norman Renord Smith was identified as the person who fired the fatal shot. Smith was not the child’s father. Defense testimony said Smith had been pepper-sprayed, felt threatened, and grabbed a gun that belonged to Cooper; his attorney argued Adams had been the aggressor. Prosecutors said Smith killed Adams without justification.

Smith was arrested and tried beginning October 24, 2018. On October 31, 2018, a jury found him guilty of voluntary manslaughter in Adams’s death but acquitted him of the manslaughter charge for the unborn child. He faced an additional two to 20 years for the conviction with use of a deadly weapon. Adams’s mother expressed distress at the verdict outside the courtroom.

Did anyone witness the confrontation outside the restaurant who hasn’t spoken to investigators?
