Mikel Willis was 19 when he was found dead near a dumpster behind an apartment complex in Lexington, Kentucky, on February 7, 2018. He had multiple gunshot wounds. A Bryan Station High School graduate who planned to attend Bluegrass Community and Technical College, Willis was one of three males under 19 killed by gunfire in the city within a six-hour span that night.

Authorities later charged 18-year-old Malik Rashawn Nelson, who was already jailed in the Fayette County jail on an unrelated homicide arrest from April, in Willis’s killing. Nelson also faced charges of trafficking in a controlled substance and a probation violation tied to a misdemeanor robbery; witnesses in the other homicide reported Nelson had spoken about that victim having snitched on him. Police said the investigation connected Nelson to Willis’s death.

If anyone has information about what happened that February night or knew Mikel, please share what you know with investigators.
