Jury selection was completed today shortly
before 5 p.m. in the Lamondre Tucker
first-degree murder trial.
Opening statements will begin at 2 p.m.
Sunday in Judge Ramona Emanuel’s court.
LaMondre Tucker faces the death penalty if
convicted as charged for the death of Tavia
Sills, his pregnant ex-girlfriend. Two
people fishing in a pond at the end of
Legardy Street spotted Sills’ body Sept. 12,
2008 at the water’s edge of the pond. She
disappeared three days before when
Tucker picked her up from her north
Shreveport residence.
Police say Tucker plotted to kill Sills after
his new girlfriend found out that Sills was
pregnant. The victim was to welcome their
baby boy into the world in January 2009.
A compilation of daily news articles from around the United States about deaths (including both people and animals) that appear to occur in the context of a past or present intimate relationship, focusing on 2009-present. (NOTE: this blog is limited to incidents that appear in the media and are captured by our search terms. We recognize this is not an exhaustive portrayal of all deaths resulting from intimate violence.) When is society going to realize intimate violence makes victims of us all?
