Edward Henry Jr. Wisdom, 71, was found fatally shot on the front porch of his home at 3205 Moorewood Drive in Nashville shortly after noon on Friday, October 28, 2011. Neighbors reported hearing gunshots around 2:00 a.m., and investigators concluded he was likely shot at that time. A long-time employee of Tennessee State University, Wisdom’s sudden, violent death devastated his community.

The initial investigation did not produce any identified suspects or arrests, and the case eventually went cold. The Nashville Police Department continues to list his death on its cold case files, and the circumstances of his final hours remain unresolved. If anyone knew Edward, was in the Moorewood Drive area on the morning of October 28, 2011, or has information about this shooting, please come forward.
