Jermaine Hunter, a 25-year-old Black man, was found shot to death outside his home on McCall Street in Hattiesburg, Mississippi, on June 29, 2020. The Hattiesburg Police Department opened a homicide investigation into the fatal shooting.

Investigators identified 22-year-old Alex Carmichael Williams of Hattiesburg as the primary suspect and a warrant for first-degree murder was issued; authorities warned he should be considered armed and dangerous. Williams remained at large for several months before surrendering to Hattiesburg Police in October 2020 in the company of family, his pastor, and an attorney and was booked into the Forrest County Jail on the first-degree murder charge.

While out on bond for Hunter’s murder, Williams was implicated in a separate fatal shooting in Nashville, Tennessee, in August 2020. He later surrendered in Nashville after an indictment there and was being held without bond. The legal proceedings in Mississippi were ongoing as of the last available update.
