More Arrests in a Smith County Robbery/Murder

TYLER – Two more arrests have been made in the January 28th robbery and homicide at the Conoco station on Tyler’s NNE Loop. The latest suspect in custody is Kiera Shasta Oliver, 25, the sister of Kedarius Hays Oliver who is already in custody. She has been charged with making a false report to an officer and hindering apprehension. Also arrested in the case is Shamecca Staley, 28. She has been charged with tampering with physical evidence and hindering apprehension/prosecution. She is the sister of Dameon Jamrc Mosley and is believed to be the person that drove Mosley to Dallas after the robbery took place.

This brings to five the number of persons arrested in the case in which store employee Billy Stacks, 62, was shot. He later died at a Tyler Hospital. According to the Smith County Sheriff’s Office, early Saturday morning, a masked man came into the station. Security footage shows the man jumping over the counter and pointing a gun at Stacks. Deputies said Stacks was shot twice during a struggle between the two.

After the robbery, the masked man ran from the gas station and later got into a vehicle which authorities pursued. During the chase, one suspect got out of the vehicle and ran into a wooded area around Texas Hwy 155 and I-20. The driver of the vehicle continued down Highway 155. Smith County Deputies set up a perimeter around the wooded area. DPS helicopters and K-9 units were also called to the scene. The vehicle was later discovered on Farm Road 2015 at County Road 334.

Around 10:30 that Saturday night, arrest warrants were issued by Smith County Court at Law Judge Randall Rogers charging Lamarcus Hannah, 32, and Dameon Jamrc Mosley, 26, both of Tyler, with aggravated robbery. Shortly after the issuance of the arrest warrants, Lamarcus Hannah was taken into custody at the Smith County Sheriff’s Office where he was being interviewed prior to the issuance of the warrants. He was booked into the Smith County Jail with bond set at one million dollars.

The second suspect, Dameon Mosley, was taken into custody in Dallas by Smith County Sheriff’s Office Detectives and members of the Dallas Police Department. He appeared before a Dallas County Magistrate before he was taken to the Smith County Jail.

Smith County Sheriff Larry Smith said the suspects are in the county jail on charges of aggravated robbery. And Sheriff Smith said he expects the district attorney will take the case before the grand jury, asking that the suspects be indicted for capital murder.

In a news conference, Sheriff Smith said he expects the suspects will also be suspects in some other area robberies. He told reporters he expects the Dollar General robberies to decrease by 100%.
