Jimmy Martin Webb was 28 when he was shot to death in Louisville, Kentucky, on Monday, July 26, 2021. Described as hardworking, meticulous and deeply caring, Webb’s family remembered him by his motto, If you can’t find a good person, be one!

The killing followed an argument at Material Handling Systems with a coworker, Eric Deshields. The two agreed to settle their dispute in the parking lot during a break. Deshields retrieved a firearm from his vehicle and, while Webb was walking away, shot him multiple times, then stood over Webb and fired additional shots.

Deshields was arrested and charged with murder. He later pleaded guilty but mentally ill; records state he was suffering from a mental illness at the time but was not legally insane. He was sentenced to 20 years in prison and must serve 85% of that term before becoming eligible for parole.

If anyone knew Jimmy Webb or was at Material Handling Systems that day, information could help fill gaps in what happened.
