Fourth Suspect Arrested in Jackson Triple Homicide

The arrests deepen a multiagency probe, raising pressure on Jackson leaders to boost resources and pursue further charges.

Overview

  • A targeted shooting that occurred on Saturday killed two sisters, Erica and Keyana Weathersby, and Keyana’s 2-year-old son, Camari Givens, inside their Queen Alexandria Lane home.
  • Four people have now been charged with capital murder after local and out-of-state arrests, with a fourth suspect taken into custody in Texas and held without bond.
  • Police recovered multiple firearms — including a 9mm and an AR-style pistol — and a red 2020 Mitsubishi Mirage linked to the case during the arrests and searches.
  • Two earlier suspects, Cornelius Carter and Jordan Carter, were arrested after a short chase and denied bond; court records show Cornelius has a lengthy criminal history and was reported wearing an ankle monitor at the time of the killings.
  • The investigation involves local, state and federal partners including the FBI, officials say the attack was deliberate, additional persons of interest may exist, and funeral services for the victims are scheduled for July 11.
