On the night of May 20, 2018, 33-year-old Terry Donnell Jordan was found shot multiple times while seated in a vehicle at an apartment complex on West Silas Brown Street in Jackson, Mississippi. Officers arrived around 11 p.m.; the car remained on scene as investigators photographed the parking lot and organized evidence markers. Jordan was pronounced dead there.

Within days the Jackson Police Department’s Gun Crimes Interdiction Team identified a suspect. Booker Orlandus Tarvin Jr., then 22, was arrested during a traffic operation four days after the shooting and charged with murder; officers recovered a Glock 23 handgun and a quantity of methamphetamine at that time. Tarvin was booked in Hinds County and held on a $150,000 bond as the case moved into the courts.

Court activity that followed included continuances, a bench warrant after missed contacts with counsel, and a rescheduled trial date in March 2022. Reporters later noted the record trails off without a final verdict. Does anyone who knew Terry or who was in that neighborhood on May 20, 2018 have information that could help clarify what happened?
