Moments after he'd pumped multiple rounds in
Derrick Cash's small body and left the sixth grader to die in a deserted, swampy tract of Michoud Boulevard, Tyrese Harris felt regret, he told New Orleans police.
Not for killing the 12-year-old. But for failing to take out his co-conspirator, Tyree "Teezy" Conerly.
"I knew I should have hit him," Harris told ATF agent Vincent Liberto in a three-hour statement taken shortly after he was arrested on Feb. 6, 2022. "Nobody would know nothing right now. I wouldn't have to talk about this."
