Henisha Scott, a 24-year-old African American woman, was killed in broad daylight on June 1, 2022, in Prichard, Alabama. Scott was riding in a white Kia with 27-year-old Michael Trotter when occupants of a gold Toyota Camry opened fire outside the Main Street Food Mart on West Main Street. Investigators reported more than 50 shots struck the Kia, leaving it riddled with bullet holes; both occupants were fatally shot.

Prichard police arrested 26-year-old Julian Demond Woods on June 6, 2022, charging him with two counts of murder. Woods was later indicted on three counts of capital murder alleging the deaths occurred during a single course of conduct and that the victims were killed while occupying a vehicle. While in custody he was stabbed on June 7, 2022, and treated for non-life-threatening injuries.

By June 2026 the prosecution was preparing for trial but key witnesses Jamia Zabri Campbell and Jada Alicia McNeil-Jackson failed to appear; a warrant was issued for Campbell. On June 12, 2026, Judge Vicki Davis dismissed the capital murder charges against Woods without prejudice. District Attorney Keith Blackwood said missing witnesses had hampered the case, and additional reporting indicated that surveillance recordings and other digital evidence collected earlier could not be located.

Did anyone in Prichard witness the shooting or have information about the gold Toyota Camry or the missing digital evidence?
