Bernard Jackson Jr. was 28 and from Memphis, Tennessee, when he died on December 3, 2014. Public death notices and a cemetery record list his birth date as October 10, 1986, and show burial at Brown M.B. Church Cemetery in Memphis, Shelby County. Funeral arrangements referenced services handled through M. J. Edwards’ Whitehaven location, which reflects the neighborhoods where his family gathered after his death.

The notices available online are brief and do not describe a cause of death, nor do they name any suspect, report arrests, or detail charges or court actions. Because the accessible records are limited to obituary and memorial entries, there is not enough information in those public postings to reconstruct what happened in the final hours or to know whether investigators pursued a particular person in connection with his death.

If anyone knew Bernard, his family, or has information about the circumstances of his death, please come forward to share what is known.
