Moyanna Johnson

Moyanna Johnson was a 21-year-old resident of Jackson, Mississippi. Public records and contemporaneous news reporting place him at the Cypress Point Apartments near Raymond Drive/Hospital Drive in Jackson in October 2014. Though details about his personal life in public sources are limited, the records confirm he was a young man whose life mattered to family and neighbors in his community.

What is known from reliable public sources is factual and succinct: Moyanna lived in Jackson and was 21 years old at the time of his death on October 21, 2014. Local reporting from the time describes emergency responders finding him in his apartment at Cypress Point. The subsequent investigation identified a suspect and led to criminal prosecution; those legal records confirm the date and location tied to Moyanna’s death.

Because there is no published, family-authorized obituary located in accessible funeral-home or obituary archives that matches his name and the exact date of death, comprehensive personal details (such as birth date, occupations, schools, or extended family statements) are not available in the public record I could verify. That absence does not lessen the reality that Moyanna was a neighbor, a member of a local community, and a person whose life had meaning to people who knew him.

This remembrance is offered with respect for Moyanna’s dignity. He was a young Jackson resident whose life ended on October 21, 2014. For those who knew him, may the private memories held by family and friends — the small daily moments, the relationships and the hopes he carried — be the lasting tribute rather than the public record of how he died.
