Soconda Boyd, 47, was fatally shot in the early hours of July 23, 2019, after a dispute in the parking lot of Naifeh’s Food Mart near Mohawk and MLK Boulevard in north Tulsa. Friends called her Candy and said she was a mother trying to turn her life around. Tulsa Police found Boyd with a gunshot wound to the neck; she was taken to St. John Medical Center and later pronounced dead. The Oklahoma Office of the Chief Medical Examiner ruled her death a homicide.

Investigators quickly focused on a woman believed to have been involved in an ongoing feud with Boyd. Authorities identified 41-year-old Diamanta Hera Tibbs as the primary suspect, and court documents say the shooting followed an earlier incident the previous night involving one of Tibbs’ children and Boyd at the convenience store. A warrant for first-degree murder was issued on July 25, 2019, and Tibbs was later apprehended; the case was later featured on the television show The First 48.

Are there witnesses or anyone who knew Soconda Boyd or the people involved who can add details about the events that led up to that night?
