GOLD SHIELDS, EPISODE 78; A LIFE CUT SHORT, THE TESSA MAJORS CASE

We hope you enjoy this episode of Gold Shields, let us know how we did.

In this heartbreaking episode of Gold Shields, Dan and Tom interview NYPD Homicide Detective Will Acevedo, who ran the investigation into the murder of Tessa Majors in 2019. The case was particularly compelling due to the youth of the victim, and to add even more focus, a promising student at Columbia University. Detective Acevedo discusses the initial response to the scene, the challenges of the investigation, and the hunt for the suspects. High profile cases in New York City always end up having a political charge to it, and this was no different.  Wil and his team worked tirelessly to get the people involved in this senseless murder, and to bring justice for a 19 year old young girl who had her whole future in front of her. Join us as Wil dives into this stressful and sad case of A Life Cut Short.
