Message from mother via GoFundMe:
My name is Tarsha Harris. I am the mother of 22-year-old Tyeasha Starks and grandmother of 1-year-old Tanceton Currie. On February 20th, my daughter, Tyeasha Starks, was shot and killed by Tanceton’s paternal grandfather while attempting to pick up Tanceton from his paternal grandparents’ home.
After being shot multiple times, Tyeasha attempted to drive away but drove off the road into a nearby neighbor’s yard. At the time, she also had two friends and an infant in the car with her.
Upon my arrival on the scene, I was given limited information in regards to what had occurred. About 30 minutes later, the medical examiner informed me that Tyeasha did not survive, and I was not given the courtesy of identifying my daughter’s body before being transferred to Nashville for an autopsy.
It saddens me that my grandson may have witnessed the killing of his mother, and I fear for Tanceton’s safety because the system failed to immediately remove him from an unstable environment during an active investigation of the shooter. I was told that Child Protective Services was called and would contact me the next day, but none of this ever happened. So I was forced to file a case myself with Child Protective Services.
This entire investigation has lacked thoroughness, transparency, and clear communication.
