Eric Leon Williams Sr., 52, was found dead on the side of a road in Caroline County near Ruther Glen, Virginia, on December 21, 2021. He had suffered fatal gunshot wounds, and the discovery launched a criminal investigation.

That inquiry led to an arrest of a man from Henrico who was identified as the victim’s son. The arrest marked a major development in the case but leaves many questions about motive and circumstances unanswered.

Did anyone in the Ruther Glen or Henrico communities know Eric or his family and have information that could shed light on what happened?
