Shuterica Shuntavious Lipscomb, a 22-year-old female, died on December 5, 2016, after being shot in a Homewood, Alabama apartment. In the days following her death, authorities arrested her 26-year-old boyfriend, Tavarus Jerome Jackson, in connection with the fatal shooting.
The investigation into Lipscomb's death led to Jackson being formally charged with murder.
Following his arrest, he was booked into the Homewood City Jail before being transferred to the Jefferson County Jail, where he was held without bond.
Subsequent legal proceedings in the Jefferson County Circuit Court, under the case number CC-17-2070, resulted in a conviction of Tavarus Jerome Jackson. While the specific conviction and sentence details are not readily available in public news sources, court documents indicate that the case has been through the judicial system. As of February 23, 2024, the Alabama Court of Criminal Appeals overruled an 'Application for Rehearing' from Jackson, signifying that his conviction is being appealed.
