A triple homicide on January 20, 2025, left three people dead inside a Poplar Hill Drive home in Cross, South Carolina. Responding deputies found 55-year-old Marsena Moore of Summerville, 56-year-old Thomas Williams of Ridgeville, and 46-year-old Torrionda Taylor of Cross deceased from gunshot wounds. The Berkeley County Sheriff’s Office and the county coroner opened an investigation and scheduled autopsies to confirm causes of death.

Investigators later arrested 67-year-old Leroy Alexander Witherspoon and charged him with three counts of murder and two counts of possession of a weapon during a violent crime. No motive has been released and the case is moving through the legal system.
