Cassandra Hampton was 26 when she was struck by a stray bullet during a shootout in Seattle’s Pioneer Square in the early hours of January 27, 2014. The gunfire erupted near Club Volume at Second Avenue South and South Main Street in a turf dispute between a Central Area-based gang and a South Seattle gang. At least 17 shots were exchanged; Cassandra was standing in a nearby crowd and was hit in the neck.

She was taken to Harborview Medical Center and died four days later from her injuries. Prosecutors later identified and convicted two men tied to the shootout: Jamell Webb, who received a seven-year federal sentence for unlawful possession of a firearm, and Jerrel Johnson, who was sentenced to four years in state court. Neither man was charged with Cassandra’s murder, and the person who fired the fatal shot has not been officially identified.

Does anyone who was in Pioneer Square that night or who knew Cassandra have information that could help clarify what happened?
