William Joseph Spillane, 27, known to family as Joey, was shot to death on November 27, 2019, in a double homicide in Petersburg, Virginia. He was a father to a young daughter. The killings were recorded as the city’s 18th homicide in what was then a record year for slayings in Petersburg.

The Petersburg Police Department investigated the double shooting. About a year and a half later authorities announced an arrest in connection with the deaths. Court records and testimony describe a witness who said he was on the phone with Spillane during the incident, heard an argument, then the line went silent; the witness testified that an individual approached Spillane and the other victim, demanded Spillane exit his vehicle, and when he refused fired multiple shots into the car.

Does anyone have information about Joey Spillane, his movements on November 27, 2019, or anything that could help clarify what happened that night?
