Teshaun was a Newark resident born in the summer of 1997 and was connected to Campus High School. Online memorials list nicknames Tweak and Tee Tee and remember him as funny, goofy, sweet, and happy. The Essex County Prosecutor’s Office Homicide/Major Crimes Task Force handled the investigation; open accounts do not name a suspect or report an arrest tied to his death.
