Law enforcement across Tennessee and Kentucky are looking for a man after his girlfriend was found dead in his Antioch apartment last weekend.
On Friday, March 13, officials said Kentucky State Police found 26-year-old Kierra Timmons’ red Dodge Charger abandoned on an Interstate 24 bridge over the Cumberland River with the engine running, the door open, and the hazard flashers on.
“La Vergne police came knocking on my door at 9:30, telling me they had found her car abandoned and couldn’t find her, and this was in Kentucky, so I tried to reach her, [but I] couldn’t get her,” Kierra’s aunt, Stacy Dotson, said.
Dotson was notified by the police last weekend that her niece was missing, raising concerns. According to Dotson, Kierra had no family or connections in Kentucky.
“I had to get in touch with her best friend, and her best friend happened to have her location, and that’s how we found her at his apartment,” Dotson explained.
After Kierra’s loved ones alerted the Metro Nashville Police Department, officers joined two of her friends for a welfare check and found Kierra dead in 37-year-old Darrion Young’s apartment along Brittany Park Drive on Saturday, March 14. Officials ruled her cause of death as strangulation.
“She had talked about him to me,” Dotson said, referring to Kierra’s boyfriend, Young. “I disapproved because of certain things he would do… I told her it wasn’t healthy.”
Authorities said Young’s license was found inside Kierra’s abandoned car. He was reportedly last seen in Nashville on Friday, hours before the Dodge Charger was located in Kentucky.
“I know he has tattoos on his face, so he shouldn’t be too hard to recognize,” she stated.
Kierra’s sister, Kalee Timmons, met Young and even opened her home to him.
“She was just looking for love, and that guy would treat her good at some points and then he would accuse her of cheating, and it was just a bad situation… He seemed like he had good intentions because he was like advising her to get back in school, and he would help her financially,” Kalee said.
Kalee knew her sister’s concerns, but she did not know how bad things really were behind closed doors.
“I just don’t understand why he just decided just to take her life,” Kalee said. “I just can’t fathom it in my own mind. Like, it just doesn’t make sense. It doesn’t add up.”
...
If it’s brown, flush it down.
We don’t have to live like this.
“I just don't understand why he just decided just to take her life,” Kalee said. “I just can't fathom it in my own mind. Like, it just doesn't make sense. It doesn't add up.”
Lady, when a guy has tattoos on his face, he is not a safe person.
Guess.
Go ahead.
Guess.
Yep. It’s them booboo.
Them. Avoid them.
My grandfather once said that a state is not doing its job if it’s not executing one murderer per day.
He was right.
“I know he has tattoos on his face, so he shouldn’t be too hard to recognize,” she stated.
Seeing that booking photo pf Darrion Young, I think she had a death wish.
She was so pretty.
WHY choose that self-identifying psycho?!?
But then you already knew that from the names:
It totally “added up”.
Same ol’, same ol’…. same as it ever was.
Why would any white woman want to be with a black man is beyond me!
Darrion didn’t “just decide” to take her life. He was a seething murderer in his heart and finally lost what little control he had.
“Sad story for sure.”
Does this count as a Darwin Award ?
The toll - paid in full.
“Do not ask for whom the coal tolls, it tolls for thee.”
It’s practically a suicide.

“Seeing that booking photo pf Darrion Young, I think she had a death wish.”
He is still on the loose.
