This interview was a direct response to the Episode on Tahjmere Hopkins' case that Crime Noir and Modern Murders covered in July 2020. Candice from Crime Noir led this interview with Mr. Hopkins while Ariel was present on the call. We learned a lot from this interview and Mr. Hopkins corrected some facts we got wrong.
The corrected facts:
1) The police did not show Tahjmere's mom his deceased photo. Tahjmere was identified through fingerprints.
The sources with the incorrect information are from the following: https://www.wric.com/news/crime/i-feel-like-no-one-cares-mother-wants-answers-after-son-found-brutally-murdered-in-petersburg/
2) Tahjmere was not tied to the chair he was found on. He was tied, but not to the chair.
The sources with this incorrect information are from the following: https://wtvr.com/2018/07/06/petersburg-police-seek-leads-in-young-fathers-brutal-murder/
This interview is very important because it gets us closer to spreading the word about Tahjmere's case. It is still unsolved and police are not revealing any suspects or leads that the family is aware of.
