James Stanley "Jay" Bias III (1970-1990)[1][2] was a college basketball player for Allegany Community College in Maryland.[3] He had planned to transfer to American University in Washington, D.C.[4] He was the younger brother of Len Bias.[3]
On December 5, 1990, he was shot to death at age 20 following a dispute in the parking lot of Prince George's Plaza, a Hyattsville shopping mall located just a few miles from the University of Maryland. Two gunmen, Jerry Tyler and Gerald Eiland, had fired several times into the vehicle Jay and two friends were in, and Jay was shot twice in the back.[5] He was pronounced dead at the same hospital where Len Bias had died, and was buried next to him at Lincoln Memorial Cemetery.[6] Tyler and Eiland were both found guilty of murdering Jay Bias.[7]
