Marqese Tann, a 36-year-old man from East Compton, California, was found dead on September 23, 2015. Tann, also known by his alias "Wolf Da Boss," was discovered with multiple gunshot wounds inside a medical marijuana dispensary called Chief Keef Glo Shop, located on East Compton Boulevard. The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department responded to a call about a deceased person at the dispensary around 6:40 p.m. Upon arrival, deputies found Tann and another man, Terrence Brown, 53, both dead at the scene. The dispensary was named after rapper Chief Keef, although the rapper denied any ownership or direct involvement with the business.
The investigation into Tann's death revealed that he was the reported owner of the dispensary. However, the motive for the shooting remained unclear, and investigators had numerous questions about the circumstances surrounding the deaths. There was no indication of a gun battle, and it was not known how long the victims had been dead before they were discovered. The coroner placed a security hold on the case, preventing the release of detailed information about the autopsies and the exact circumstances of the deaths.
Authorities did not have any immediate suspects or leads in the case. The investigation was complicated by the lack of clear connections between the victims and the absence of witnesses or surveillance footage. The Sheriff's Department sought public assistance in gathering information about the crime, urging anyone with knowledge of the incident to come forward. Despite the efforts of law enforcement, the case remained unsolved, with no arrests made or suspects identified in the years following the incident.
The deaths of Marqese Tann and Terrence Brown highlighted the ongoing issues of violence and crime in the area, particularly related to the operation of medical marijuana dispensaries. The case drew attention to the need for increased security and oversight in such establishments to prevent similar tragedies in the future. As of now, the investigation into the murders of Tann and Brown continues, with authorities hoping that new information or leads will eventually bring justice to the victims and their families.
