Tucson,
Ariz. — Police have charged a 27-year-old man with second-degree murder
after a 61-year-old woman died from injuries suffered in a July 24
assault at a midtown apartment complex.
Susan Marie Gehrke was
sitting on a patio with a male companion around 10 p.m. when Dahseir
Edward Jefferson approached and turned confrontational, according to the
Tucson Police Department. Jefferson allegedly punched the man first,
knocking him down and causing head and facial injuries that left him in
critical condition. He then struck Gehrke, sending her to the ground.
The blow broke part of her dentures and left her unconscious with a
brain bleed.
Emergency crews rushed Gehrke to a hospital with
life-threatening injuries. She died five days later, on July 29.
Jefferson, who left the scene, was located and arrested July 28. He
initially faced two counts of aggravated assault. After Gehrke’s death,
authorities added the second-degree murder charge. He is being held at
the Pima County Adult Detention Complex on a $650,000 bond.
Family
members described Gehrke as someone who had overcome cancer twice and
was nearing retirement. Her 62nd birthday would have fallen on Aug. 3.
Her grandson later noted that she had worked her whole life to support
her family.
Detectives from the Robbery Assault and Homicide
units continue to investigate the case in Arizona. Anyone with
information is asked to contact the Tucson Police Department or call
88-CRIME to remain anonymous.
The
main federal law prohibiting housing racial discrimination and
segregation is Title VIII of the Civil Rights Act of 1968, better known
as the Fair Housing Act. Earlier measures, including the Civil Rights
Act of 1866, already barred racial discrimination in property deals, and
the Supreme Court struck down mandatory municipal zoning ordinances
that enforced segregation in Buchanan v. Warley.
