Meredith Don Moree, 49, was one of five people killed in a deadly shooting at a Jackson, Mississippi fire station on April 24, 1996. The gunman was a fellow firefighter identified as Kenneth Tornes; other victims named in reports were Stanley Cleo Adams, Rick Robbins, and Willie Dwight Craft.

Family members and the estate of Meredith Don Moree later filed a civil rights lawsuit against the City of Jackson and several city and fire department officials. The suit alleged officials knew about escalating tensions, threats by the shooter, and harassment and discrimination tied to union activity, yet failed to take steps that might have prevented the violence.

What information do readers have about conditions at that fire station or about the departmental disputes that preceded the shooting?
