Jamie Guadagno, 26, was fatally shot on the evening of March 25, 2025, on Troy Street in Dayton, Ohio. Dayton Police responded to reports of gunfire at about 9:00 p.m. and found Guadagno with gunshot wounds to the throat and upper chest. She was taken to Miami Valley Hospital, where she died.

The Dayton Police Homicide Unit opened an investigation. Witness statements and surveillance footage later pointed investigators to a suspect. A Montgomery County Grand Jury returned an indictment charging 46-year-old William Pointer with multiple counts, including two counts of murder, two counts of felonious assault, tampering with evidence, and two counts of having weapons under disability; firearm and Repeat Violent Offender specifications were added based on a 1997 involuntary manslaughter conviction. Pointer was in custody at a hospital after injuries from an unrelated traffic accident when he was indicted; his arraignment was scheduled for April 17, 2025.

Neighbors said Guadagno had recently moved to Dayton from New York and had just married a local resident. The investigation into motive and other details remained ongoing. Did anyone in Dayton know Jamie or have information that could help investigators?
