On the morning of October 7, 1991, 36-year-old correctional officer Ronald Levert Richardson was ambushed and fatally shot as he was getting into his car in front of his home in the 5700 block of Blaine Street NE in Washington, D.C. The killing was described as a calculated act intended to prevent Richardson from testifying that day in the kidnapping and drug case against inmate Michael A. Page, who had previously taken Richardson and another officer hostage at a halfway house in 1990 after being caught with cocaine.

Investigators say the murder was part of a conspiracy to silence Richardson. Authorities identified Bradley Sweet as the hitman hired to carry out the execution; Sweet was later tried in a consolidated case and convicted of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, felony murder, and obstruction of justice. Three others—Tony Hammond, Terrence Pleasant, and Michael Page—were charged in connection with the conspiracy. Marcia Watson, who reportedly had knowledge of the murder planning, was shot in October 1991 and then fatally shot in November 1991 to prevent her from cooperating; Sweet was also convicted in her assault and murder.

Does anyone have information about Richardson, his work, or the people named who were connected to the conspiracy?
