On the morning of April 30, 2021, in Greenville, Mississippi, Wanda Williams, also known as Wanda Jackson, was found dead on her bedroom floor by her brother, Doaby Jackson. Responding officers and paramedics determined she had multiple gunshot wounds to the chest and right arm. Seven 9mm shell casings were found on the bed, a spent projectile lay near her body, and the headboard was riddled with bullet holes. A 9mm Ruger EC95 handgun was discovered tucked under her pillow.

Investigators arrested her ex-husband, 57-year-old Sanders Williams Jr., of Mound Bayou. He confessed to shooting Wanda, initially saying he acted in self-defense, but scene evidence contradicted that account. He was originally indicted for first-degree murder with a firearm enhancement and later pleaded guilty to a reduced charge of second-degree murder; sentencing was set for May 6, 2024, at the Leflore County Justice Center. Does anyone have information about Wanda’s life in Greenville or the events that led to that morning?
