On the afternoon of April 28, 2021, the life of 36-year-old Ricky 'Boldy' Tyrone Turner was tragically cut short in Dothan, Alabama. Dothan Police Officers responded to a medical call at a residence in the 2500 block of Scott Road, where they discovered Turner inside, suffering from multiple gunshot wounds. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
In a surprising turn of events, as investigators were processing the scene, a man arrived at the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency Trooper Post on Montgomery Highway bearing information about the crime. Following a lengthy interview and based on the on-scene investigation, authorities determined they had probable cause to charge the individual who had come forward. Dexter Elliott Marsh Jr., a 27-year-old from Dothan, was subsequently arrested and charged with one count of Capital Murder in connection with Turner's death. Marsh is being held without bond.
Ricky Turner was a husband to Stacy Turner and a father to two daughters, Natalie and Lilliana, and a son, Isaiah. He is also survived by his mother, Lisa Turner, his father, Ricky Poe, a brother, and a sister. The investigation into his death is noted as ongoing.
