Doretha Richardson, 81, was found dead on the kitchen floor of her Bridge City home in the 300 block of 5th Street after deputies responded to gunfire on the night of February 15, 2013. She had sustained multiple gunshot wounds; bullet casings were found inside and outside the residence, and the pattern at the scene suggested shots were fired from the street toward the house. Three other people inside, including a three-year-old the victim was reportedly caring for, were unharmed.

Investigators with the Jefferson Parish Sheriff’s Office named Richardson’s grandson, Willis Stevenson, as a person of interest. Authorities noted both Richardson and Stevenson had been co-defendants in a cocaine distribution case, a detail officials linked to a possible motive. Neighbors and family described Richardson as a fun, loving, devout Christian who was devoted to her family.

Does anyone have information about that night or about Willis Stevenson’s whereabouts around February 15, 2013?
