On a spring evening in Memphis, Tennessee, the life of Dorothy Jackson, a 67-year-old female, was tragically cut short. On May 18, 2017, her home in South Memphis was pierced by a dozen or more gunshots. The hail of bullets penetrated the walls and windows of her Norfolk Street residence, striking the grandmother in the back multiple times.
Rushed to Regional One by paramedics, Dorothy Jackson ultimately succumbed to the severity of her wounds.
The incident left a void in her family and community, a violent end to the life of a beloved grandmother. The motive behind the shooting remains unclear, leaving more questions than answers in the wake of her death.
To date, the case of Dorothy Jackson's murder is considered a cold case by the Memphis police. Investigators have urged anyone with information about the shooting on Norfolk Street that evening to come forward, believing that even a seemingly insignificant detail could be the key to solving the crime. There have been no arrests made in connection with her death, and no suspects have been publicly identified.
