A man from Baxley has been taken into custody and faces murder charges related to the death of a 41-year-old, as stated by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation (GBI) on Tuesday.

The charges against Ty’Relle Tarver include malice murder, felony murder, and aggravated assault concerning the death of Jeremy Beckworth, according to a GBI spokesperson.

The 18-year-old Tarver was taken into custody and booked into the Appling County Jail Tuesday, June 3.

On May 21, 2025, at approximately 11:30 p.m., officers from the Baxley Police Department (BPD) responded to a 911 call reporting a shooting near the intersection of Highland Drive and Edgarton Road.

Officers found Beckworth with a fatal gunshot wound and he was pronounced dead on the scene, a GBI spokesperson said.

The BPD then requested the GBI conduct a death investigation which indicated that Tarver shot at Beckworth and his girlfriend several times.

Beckworth was taken to the GBI Medical Examiner’s Office in Pooler for a complete autopsy to determine the official cause and manner of death.

This investigation is active and ongoing. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the Baxley Police Department at (912) 367-8305 or the GBI Regional Investigative Office in Douglas at (912) 389-4103.
