On February 16, 2016, 23-year-old Ryshaun Montay Bigelow was found dead in the roadway in the 100 block of 7th Street S.W. in Moultrie, Georgia, with multiple gunshot wounds. A witness reported hearing four shots, a pause, then three more. Bigelow’s killing was the county’s first homicide that year.

Police arrested 23-year-old Donterrius Williams the next day; he was charged in connection with Bigelow’s death. Within an hour of Bigelow being found, a second shooting occurred nearby in the 100 block of 4th Street S.W. that struck 25-year-old Darian Williams, the brother of the man arrested; Darian was airlifted to a Macon hospital with multiple gunshot wounds. Authorities later tied that second attack to retaliation and identified Darryl Dana Thomas Jr. as the shooter; Thomas pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in May 2017 and received a ten-year sentence.

Donterrius Williams ultimately pleaded guilty in May 2018 to voluntary manslaughter and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and was sentenced to 16 years, with eight to be served in prison and the remainder on probation, with credit for time served. Does anyone have information about Bigelow’s movements that afternoon or the events leading up to the shootings?
