Joshua Williams was 32 when he was fatally shot in Hampton, Virginia, on January 2, 2018. The Hampton Police Division opened an investigation into the homicide that followed his death.

Within days police arrested two men identified as Eric Joesph Nixon and Brandon Williams and charged both with murder, use of a firearm in the commission of a felony, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. The case proceeded through preliminary hearings and grand jury indictments in the Hampton court system.

Trials were held and a jury found both men guilty of the charges brought in connection with Joshua Williams’ death. The courts later imposed sentences determining their terms of incarceration.

If anyone knew Joshua, his movements that day, or has information that could add detail to the timeline, please come forward.
