Haley Reedy was 15 and a Millington Central High School student who loved to sing and performed in band and color guard. Family remembered her as the light in the day and said she had her whole life planned out before a phone call changed everything.

On September 11, 2022, Haley was at a residence on Clear Creek Drive in Millington with 18-year-old Seth Walls and another teenage girl when a single gunshot ended her life. An autopsy found a gunshot wound entering behind her right ear and exiting her left temple at a downward angle; the Shelby County Medical Examiner ruled the death a homicide and said the wound could not have been self-inflicted. Investigators arrested Walls and charged him with reckless homicide and reckless endangerment after differing accounts about where everyone was when the gun fired.

A Shelby County grand jury later upgraded the charges to second-degree murder and reckless endangerment with a deadly weapon. Haley’s parents, David and Brandee Reedy, have been vocal advocates for justice. If anyone knew Haley, was at the house that night, or has information about what happened, please come forward.
