Jeremy Tomlinson was a 30-year-old White man from Tacoma, Washington, known to friends and family as Doughboy and described as outgoing and good with his children. He was reported missing by his sister on January 5, 2022. Early the next morning, about 3:30 a.m. on January 6, his body was found wrapped in a tarp in the 200 block of East 23rd Street near a homeless encampment under Interstate 705.

The Pierce County Medical Examiner determined Tomlinson died of multiple gunshot wounds, including to the face and thigh, and ruled his death a homicide. Investigators say the shooting occurred inside an RV at the encampment; the body was concealed nearby and the RV was set on fire on January 5, leaving the vehicle burned to the axles. Detectives identified 30-year-old Tyrone D Angelo Babbs Jr. as the primary suspect, arrested him on April 27, 2022, and prosecutors charged him with multiple crimes including second-degree murder and first-degree arson. The trial concluded in February 2024 with convictions and a sentence, closing the legal case.

Did anyone in Tacoma know Jeremy, his movements around the encampment, or any details about disputes he had with Babbs that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
