LEXINGTON, Ky. (LEX 18) — An 18-year-old, along with another teenager, have been indicted in connection to the March 2025 shooting death of 16-year-old Arsenio Jackson Jr., a junior at Henry Clay High School in Lexington.
Jabari Lefrench Myers, now 18, and a 16-year-old were indicted by a grand jury in November 2025 on charges of complicity to murder, according to court documents filed in Fayette Circuit Court.
The indictment alleges that on March 4, 2025, the defendants caused the death of 16-year-old Arsenio Jackson Jr. by shooting and killing him. Bail has been set at $1 million for each defendant.
LEX 18 previously reported that officers responded to the 700 block of Rambling Creek Drive just before 2 a.m. in March and found Jackson suffering from a gunshot wound in the roadway. He was pronounced dead at the scene.
The Fayette County Coroner's Office identified the victim as Arsenio Jackson Jr. and conducted an autopsy at the State Medical Examiner's Office in Frankfort.
