Fatal shooting victim’s family pushes for answers from public: ‘You can’t just let it die’

  • Fatal shooting victim Christopher Jones-McClean was ‘the best friend anyone could have’
  • Crime stoppers offers $1,000 reward for information that leads to arrest
  • Video cameras record suspects and car
  • Father of Jones-McClean says you ‘can’t hug your son through a casket’

The family of 26-year-old fatal shooting victim Christopher Jones-McClean wants the two yet-identified suspects in his case to face justice.

“You can’t just let it die,” his grandmother Pam Martin said during a recent news conference at the Murfreesboro Police Department Headquarters. “Somebody knows something. And in time, that somebody will come forward.”

The unidentified suspects are believed to have shot Jones-McClean and a severely wounded 25-year-old friend Oct. 12 in the garage area of a townhome where both victims had previously resided on Cason Lane in Murfreesboro.

The suspects were wearing face masks and blue hoodies when they approached the victims at night demanding money but were unable to get anything, police spokesperson Larry Flowers said.
