Lozier says he is publicly naming Jeter to help bring closure to her family, and in hopes that members of the public may have information relevant to the five-year-old case.

In 2021, Lozier's office convicted Jeter of first-degree murder for the May 2020 shooting death of his friend Tyric Pugh, 30.
