On February 11, 2018, 17-year-old Brandon Alexander Burpo was shot multiple times outside his residence on Winchester Hills Way in Pinson, Alabama after answering a phone call and approaching a vehicle. Deputies found him with a gunshot wound; he was taken to a nearby hospital and died shortly after arrival.

Investigators say the call was placed by 18-year-old Jada Williams. Williams and her 18-year-old boyfriend, Traquarus Brannon, were arrested the next day. Williams admitted making the call to lure Burpo; Brannon allegedly opened fire. Williams was charged with murder and released on a $60,000 bond; Brannon faced a capital murder charge and was held without bond. A Jefferson County grand jury indicted both in July 2018, and authorities indicated a third suspect had fled the area.

The case’s ultimate legal resolution is not clear from available reports. If anyone knew Brandon or has information about the shooting or the reported third suspect, please share what can help the investigation.
