In the late hours of April 1, 2010, the life of Terry Douglas Trask Jr., a 22-year-old male from New Orleans, Louisiana, was tragically cut short. Just weeks before his 23rd birthday, he was discovered the victim of a brutal act of violence. His death was the result of a gunshot wound, an event that marked a grim tally in the city's history of homicides.
Terry was not alone when he died. He was found alongside another man, Tyrez Williams, who was 26 years old.
The two men were discovered together in a hotel room located in the 6000 block of Chef Menteur Highway, a scene that would undoubtedly remain etched in the minds of the investigators who were called to the location just before the stroke of midnight. The discovery of their bodies signaled the beginning of a double homicide investigation.
Despite the gravity of the crime, the trail for those responsible appears to have gone cold in the public record. Online sources and news archives detailing the events of that night and the subsequent investigation are sparse. Information regarding any potential suspects who may have been identified or any arrests made in connection with the murders of Terry Douglas Trask Jr. and Tyrez Williams is not readily available. The story of that fatal night in a New Orleans hotel room is one that, in the public eye, remains without a final chapter, leaving the question of who was responsible unanswered.
