Michael Hampton Jr., 33, was found dead on February 21, 2020, after being shot once through the heart in San Francisco’s Bayview District. His body was discovered slumped over the steering wheel of his red Mustang, which had crashed into a fence post; the shooting occurred about a half block from where the car stopped in an industrial area near warehouses and RV camps. Hampton was taken to San Francisco General Hospital and pronounced dead shortly after.

Police canvassed the area for witnesses, evidence and video. Two people living in an RV near the scene, Sarina Borg and Fasi Fotu, were arrested in late May 2020. Prosecutors said video showed Borg and Fotu opening the driver’s side door and shooting Hampton in the back before fleeing; the defense disputed the clarity of the footage and suggested another person might have been responsible. In November 2022 a jury found Fasi Fotu guilty of first-degree murder, with the prosecution arguing Fotu shot Hampton after a brief verbal confrontation.

Are there witnesses or anyone with video from the Bayview area on February 21, 2020, who can shed more light on what happened?
