In the early morning hours of May 4, 2014, 26-year-old Terrance Jerome Valentine was shot to death in the parking lot of a Motel 6 in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Witnesses reported hearing gunshots and seeing a struggle between two men after a conversation between Terrance and another man’s wife escalated into a heated confrontation. The shooting was Tulsa’s 15th homicide of the year.

Police identified Fue Xiong as a suspect; investigators say Xiong shot Valentine in the back during the struggle. Xiong was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and the case went to trial, where the defense argued self-defense and the prosecution presented evidence to the jury.

Terrance’s family remembered him as kind and free-spirited, with a love of fishing, working on cars and playing basketball. If anyone has information about Terrance, the events at the Motel 6 that night, or the people involved, please come forward.
