Willie Hooper, 37, was found dead in November 2018 when his body was recovered submerged in a well off Highway 404 in Duck Hill, Mississippi. Investigators determined he had been shot and that his body was disposed of at that secluded spot after the killing.

Authorities said the killing took place at a residence in rural Grenada County after Hooper went to visit his ex-girlfriend. Police identified three people in connection with the case: Monique Lott, her brother Mack Lott, and Marquize Tillmon, and said the motive related to a romantic entanglement involving Hooper’s ex-girlfriend.

All three were arrested and charged with capital murder. Subsequent legal proceedings produced different accounts about who fired the fatal shot. If anyone knew Willie Hooper, his movements that day, or saw activity near the residence or Highway 404 in November 2018, please come forward with information.
