Sahel Kazemi also known as Saleh and Jenny just turned 20 few weeks ago. She was from Jacksonville, Florida, where her family lives. She was raised by a sister named Sepideh Salmani. Kazemi was actually the aunt of Sepideh Salmani but they were raised as sisters. Salmani's mother adopted her at the age of 9. Her mother was a native of Iran and was murdered when Kazemi was 9 while her father was unknown.

Her neighbors described her as friendly and fun-loving though naive about some things. She was also known as Jenny to her friends.
She was working as a waitress at Dave and Buster's Grand Sports Cafe where she met McNair.

Tony Farahani, General Manager of Dave and Buster's Cafe at Opry Mills said, McNair frequently came to his restaurant, often bringing several people. He also said he would not surprised if McNair met Kazemi there. He described Kazemi as a solid employee, workaholic with high energy.

Kazemi had a long-time boyfriend named Keith Norfleet, who had been dating her for four years. Five months ago, Kazemi and Keith broke up their relationship when McNair had been dating her. Keith was worried about Kazemi's dating with McNair, who was a married man.

Norfleet said that he move here in Nashville with Kazemi from Jacksonville, Florida. He also added that they'd been speaking a lot recently and she planned to break it off with McNair. He said Kazemi banged at his door early Saturday morning but she left before he could get to the door. He spent much of Saturday afternoon looking for her and trying to find out if she was the woman died with McNair.

Norfleet said upon learning her death, "She is the sweetest girl and she do not deserve this." "He was making her believe they were going to be together and everything would be perfect." "She was a very strong independent girl, a hard worker, who had hoped to get back with her." "She had a huge heart, very caring and loving."

"This is a tremendous shock, so unexpected. She was a bubbly girl and she was to come today at 5 p.m." Norfleet said.
