Jackson said showed up to a house where Tarver was playing a card game and after a conversation, Hall shot Tarver, a Lowndesboro resident. Tarver was later taken to the hospital and later died from the injuries.

“This is another gunslinger we’ve gotten off the streets,” Jackson said. “It was a brutal murder, he deserved a life sentence.”
