William Marquis Hedgepeth Jr., 19, was fatally shot inside a home on the first block of Rotherham Lane in Hampton, Virginia, on June 8, 2023. Known to family and friends as Will and Boodah, he suffered multiple gunshot wounds and was pronounced dead at the scene. He was a Hampton High School graduate remembered as quiet, friendly, loving, and caring.

Hampton police investigators recovered surveillance footage that showed a person with a gun fleeing the area and another camera that captured a vehicle leaving around the time of the shooting. Officers located the vehicle’s driver, a juvenile who had been inside the home; that witness identified the shooter as Jaden Pollock, then 16, and investigators also recovered a text in which Pollock apologized for the witness having to see the victim get headtapped.

If anyone knew Will, the household on Rotherham Lane, or saw activity in the neighborhood that evening, please share what might help the case.
