In the early hours of August 8, 2023, a triple homicide occurred inside a home on Stallings Court in Newport News, Virginia. Police responding to reports of gunfire shortly before 1 a.m. found three men inside the residence suffering fatal gunshot wounds. One of the victims was identified as Monroe McGilvary Jr., 60, of Williamsburg. The other two victims were identified as 61-year-old Alvin Eugene Holiday, also of Williamsburg, and 36-year-old Derek Rico Jones of Newport News. A woman who was in the home was found unharmed and was the person who called 911.

For months the case remained unresolved, and McGilvary’s family remembered him as a beloved family man whose absence was deeply felt. The investigation into the shootings continued and the victims’ families were seeking answers.

Does anyone who knew Monroe McGilvary Jr. or who has information about that night on Stallings Court have details to share with investigators?
