Kameron Montre Anderson, 20, of Bedford, Texas, was found dead on September 1, 2024, in the trunk of his burning vehicle in Turnertown, Rusk County. An autopsy determined he died from two fatal gunshot wounds. Cell phone records show Anderson traveled from Bedford to Smith County and arrived at the residence of 18-year-old Nathaniel Hall around 2:30 a.m. on September 1. Anderson’s phone then showed activity in the Turnertown area, with its last ping about 4:30 a.m., shortly before the burning car was reported.

Authorities say investigators developed evidence that Anderson had been lured to Hall’s home under the pretense of a social meeting and a planned robbery referred to as a rip. Three people were arrested and charged with capital murder: Nathaniel Hall, 21-year-old Jasmine Williams of Tyler, and a 16-year-old juvenile. Hall was taken into custody during a traffic stop on September 4 and was found with a stolen 9mm handgun and an AR-15 rifle; Williams surrendered on September 8 and the juvenile was detained soon after. Bonds were set at $2 million for Hall and $1 million for Williams. The investigation remains active; witnesses and phone records were key to reconstructing the timeline.

If anyone knew Kameron, saw his vehicle, or has information about his movements in Smith or Rusk counties that night, please come forward.
