Eric Black Jr, aged 20, was set free on June 25, a day after his bond was lowered from $500,000 to $150,000.

Black was arrested in January after a tip was received by civil rights activist Shaun King, who notified Sheriff Ed Gonzalez of the Harris County Police Department that he believed Black and 24-year-old Larry Woodruffe were involved in the fatal drive-by shooting.

Black later confirmed to taking part in the murder of Jazmine and authorities believe that Woodruffe is the shooter, according to KPRC.

“I am grateful to our dedicated investigators, the partner law enforcement agencies that provided vital assistance, and tipsters from across the nation who pulled together to support our work to get justice for Jazmine,” Gonzalez said after the suspects were arrested.

“Our work is not finished, but I believe the people of Harris County can take comfort in knowing we have made great progress.”

On December 30, 2018, Jazmine’s mother was transporting her four daughters on a Houston Feeder road at roughly 6:50 a.m., when their vehicle was fired upon by another driver. Jazmine was killed and her mother, LaPorsha Washington was injured, according to abc13.

Police say Black and Woodruffe thought they were firing at someone they had argued with at a club the previous night.

After the shooting, Washington says one of her daughters noticed Jazmine wasn’t saying anything.

“She said, ‘Momma, Jazmine’s not moving. She’s not talking.’ I turned around and my 7-year-old was shot in the head,” Washington said.
