Tarion Houston, a 24-year-old African-American male, was shot and killed, leaving a community searching for answers and a family grappling with a profound loss. The circumstances surrounding his death pointed to a violent end, and the Memphis Police Department immediately launched an investigation into the homicide.
In the years that have followed, the quest for justice for Tarion Houston has continued.
His case was eventually moved to the Memphis Police Department's Cold Case Unit, a specialized team dedicated to re-examining unsolved homicides.
