Shakeo Williams was a 21-year-old Black woman from Annapolis, Maryland, studying to become a Certified Nursing Assistant with plans to become a nurse. Her family described her as a beautiful sister with goals and ambition. She was killed on the evening of January 26, 2022, when Annapolis Police responded around 9:10 p.m. to a shooting in the 1100 block of Madison Street in the Harbour House community. Officers found Shakeo suffering from fatal gunshot wounds and she was pronounced dead at the scene.

Her death was the only homicide in Annapolis that year and prompted public statements from city officials. A GoFundMe was set up to help the family with funeral expenses. For more than a year the case remained unsolved with no arrests announced; detectives continued to investigate.
