Courtney Cordell Williams, 27, was found unresponsive in a bedroom on Rosenwald Street in Hollandale, Mississippi, on January 11, 2016. He had sustained a single gunshot wound to the left side of his head; an autopsy ruled the death a homicide. Williams, known as Corey to friends and family, was a father to nine children.

First responders at the scene initially found no firearm or shell casings, but investigators later learned a .380-caliber handgun had been removed from the house before their arrival. The weapon was recovered hidden under an air conditioning unit at a nearby apartment complex. Across the hall from where Williams was found, a search of Akeem Singleton’s bedroom yielded a .380 magazine, a projectile, and a shell casing; gunshot residue tests detected residue on Singleton’s hands.

Akeem Singleton pleaded guilty to second-degree murder and was sentenced to twenty-eight years in custody, with twenty-three years mandatory imprisonment and five years supervised probation. If anyone knew Courtney, his routines, or saw anything in Hollandale around January 11, 2016, please share what you know.
