Tipton County Home Invasion Murder Case Just Got a Sixth Suspect Charged by Sheriff

Corey Webb was 22 years old. He had a 3-year-old son. And on the night of December 29, 2025, he was home when multiple armed men broke in.

He fought back and managed to wound at least one attacker. But he did not survive. He was rushed to Baptist-Tipton Hospital and pronounced dead that same night.

Months later, a sixth person has now been charged with his murder.

Who Was Corey Webb

His cousin Saranda Webb told Fox13 he was the sweetest, goofiest person you would ever meet. All he wanted was to be the best dad he could be.

The night he was killed, he was planning a New Year’s trip to bring his son to visit her. That trip never happened.

That son is now growing up without a father.

What Happened on John Hill Road

Around 11:30 PM, deputies were called to the 2500 block of John Hill Road in Brighton for a reported home invasion. They found Corey Webb with multiple gunshot wounds. The attack happened in front of a woman and a child.

Webb fired back and wounded at least one attacker. The suspects fled on foot to a getaway car waiting down the road. The crime scene stretched for hundreds of yards.

The Sixth Arrest: Carlos Montez Johnson Jr.

On Tuesday morning, Carlos Montez Johnson Jr., 20, was arrested at his Memphis residence by the U.S. Marshals Two River Violent Fugitive Task Force alongside the Tipton County Violent Crimes Unit.

Unlike the first five suspects, Johnson faces an expanded charge sheet: First Degree Murder, Especially Aggravated Robbery, Especially Aggravated Burglary, Employing a Firearm During a Dangerous Felony, and Theft of $1,000 to $2,500.

A Tipton County Grand Jury returned an indictment against him on July 6. He is now held without bond and scheduled to appear in court Thursday.

As confirmed by the Tipton County Sheriff’s Office, the full suspect list includes two unidentified teens, Ashton Wayne Wolsefer, Haleah Denise Brooks, Ladarrell Mashawn Miller, and now Johnson.

What stands out is the level of coordination. A getaway car was pre-positioned. Multiple people played different roles. That kind of planning is exactly what investigators trace when building out charges against everyone involved.

It mirrors what keeps showing up in cases like burglars in all black who hit a Woodland Hills home and vanished before police arrived, deliberate, organized, and hard to unravel fast.

Why This Matters

In May 2026, the FBI released its earliest-ever national crime report. Murder decreased by an estimated 18.1% nationally in 2025, the largest single-year drop since 1937.

But national averages offer nothing to Corey Webb’s family.

What this case reveals is how many people it takes to execute one act of violence and how long accountability actually takes. Months of detective work, U.S. Marshal involvement, and a Grand Jury indictment just to get to arrest number six. These are not spontaneous crimes.

They are planned. The same pattern shows up whether it is burglars cutting flood lights before breaking into a San Fernando Valley home or two men forcing their way into a Morton Grove hotel room and robbing everyone at gunpoint.

Sheriff Beasley put it clearly: “They have worked tirelessly, remained focused, and followed every credible lead to bring justice for Corey and his family.”

Six months in. Still following through.

Six people charged for one night of violence. Do you think everyone involved in a coordinated home invasion, drivers, lookouts, planners, should face the same murder charge as the person who pulled the trigger? Drop your take in the comments.
