The year 2022 was one of bloodshed for Birmingham with mothers, fathers, sons, daughters and even grandparents losing their lives to violence.

The youngest victim was a 3-year-old boy who died alongside his grandmother at the hands of his father, according to police.

The oldest was an 83-year-old veteran beaten to death during a Pratt City burglary.

Among the city’s 144 homicide victims were 20 people under the age of 19, many of them Birmingham City School students. Some died caught in random crossfire.

“It was just a really bad year,’’ said Birmingham Police Chief Scott Thurmond. “It’s sad to see 144 people who have lost their lives in the city of Birmingham and really for no good reason at all.”

“A lot of families have been ruined, lives have been changed whether a victim’s life or a suspect’s life,’’ said Thurmond, who is in his first year as the chief of the state’s largest police force. “It’s just a tragic situation.”

Mayor Randall Woodfin on Friday took part in Mayors Against Illegal Guns’ Day of Remembrance for Gun-Related Homicide Victims.

“Though this problem is not unique to Birmingham, the pain cuts deeper when it’s our communities, our families, our friends, our children,” Woodfin said.

“They were mothers and fathers. They were brothers and sisters. Cousins, coworkers, colleagues and friends. They are Birmingham,” Woodfin said.

“We say their names to remember them and their legacies. Let these names be a reminder of the toll of violence. We cannot turn a blind eye to the pain left behind in their absence.”

Here are the 144 victims of homicides in 2022:

Keleen Connell, 27, was fatally shot by police on Feb. 23 in the 4300 block of Morris Avenue in the Avondale area.

The State Bureau of Investigation conducted the probe into Connell’s death. The District Attorney’s Office ruled the shooting justifiable.

The incident began around 5:54 p.m. in the 4000 block of First Avenue North in the Tom Brown Village public housing community.

A Birmingham officer stopped Connell to do a field interview.

It’s unclear what happened next, but the officer put out a 1033 issued, which means an officer needs all possible assistance.

According to the district attorney’s office, when other officers responded to help, they saw a gun in Connell’s hand.

At one point during the chase, Connell fell, and the gun hit the ground as well. The officers ordered Connell to stay down but he refused, authorities said. Instead, he grabbed the gun and took off running.

The officers eventually got close enough to Connell to use a stun gun, but it had no effect.

The preliminary investigation suggests an altercation took place inside of the motorcycle club before the unknown suspect fired shots.

Friends said Jones was trying to get to a hospital when he wrecked. He was a father of six and well-known drummer who was remembered for his love for family, friends and life.

“He was full of life, and he wanted to live,’’ said Markeeta Hoskin, the mother of Jones’ only daughter, 7-year-old Kynnedi. “He wanted to live for his children and his mother. They were the top priorities to him.”
