Timothy L. Gilliam, 56, was found dead from apparent gunshot wounds in his Kingsport, Tennessee home on the evening of April 19, 2018. Kingsport Police responded to a report of a shooting at his Stapleton Drive residence and opened a homicide investigation.

Detectives developed a primary suspect, Corey Lee Moore. A warrant for first-degree murder was issued for Moore on April 20, and he was arrested without incident in the early morning of April 21 in the Model City Apartments parking lot on Stonegate Road. Investigators identified a second person, Moore’s girlfriend Chandryia L. White, as having been with Moore at the time of his arrest and alleged to have known of Moore’s intent to rob Gilliam and to have aided his attempts to evade capture, initially providing false statements.

In September 2018 a Sullivan County Grand Jury returned indictments: Moore was charged with first-degree murder, felony murder, especially aggravated robbery, and tampering with evidence; White was charged with accessory after the fact, robbery, and tampering with evidence. Does anyone have information about Gilliam’s life in Kingsport or about the Stapleton Drive neighborhood that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
