Chasjuan Meeks

Chasjuan M. Meeks was born March 22, 1988. Public records show he lived in Columbus, Ohio, and was 29 years old at the time of his death. Available official records describe him as a Black man of medium height and build. Beyond these basic details, public documentation indicates he had interactions with law enforcement in past years; court records and law-enforcement cold-case listings note his name and community ties, without providing a fuller public portrait of his daily life.

On January 10, 2018, Meeks was shot and taken to Grant Medical Center in Columbus, where he was pronounced deceased the same evening. That date is recorded by the Columbus Division of Police and in the Ohio Attorney General’s public cold-case listings. Local reporting of the period identified the death as one of the early homicides in Columbus that year. Law-enforcement organizations continue to list the death among unsolved cases and encourage anyone with information to come forward.

Public sources about Chasjuan Meeks emphasize the facts of the incident and official records; however, those documents also stand as reminders that behind every entry in a police or cold-case file there was a real life with family, neighbors, and everyday hopes. Although I could not find a published, family-authorized obituary or funeral notice to draw personal remembrances from, the verified records show a man who was part of the Columbus community and whose death affected those around him.

If family or friends wish to provide memories, photographs, or corrections for a fuller memorial, adding those personal details would help transform the public record into a more human remembrance. For now, this life story honors the verified facts while acknowledging the limits of the publicly available record and treating Chasjuan Meeks with dignity and respect.
