On the morning of September 10, 2017, 26-year-old Cynthia K. Williams was among three people found shot to death inside an apartment on St. Paul Street in Richmond’s Gilpin Court neighborhood. Also killed at the scene were 50-year-old Aaron Robinson and 26-year-old Jenelle Smith. Williams is remembered in reports as a loving mother and cherished friend.

About an hour after officers arrived and began processing the triple homicide scene, additional gunfire was reported nearby. Responding officers located 28-year-old Marvin C. Eley suffering from fatal gunshot wounds in the 100 block of West Federal Street. The Richmond Police Department later identified Eley as the person responsible for the killings of Williams, Robinson, and Smith. Because Eley was deceased, police listed the triple homicide as exceptionally cleared; the motive has not been publicly disclosed and no arrest has been announced in connection with Eley’s death.

Did anyone in the Gilpin Court area or who knew Cynthia, Aaron, Jenelle, or Marvin notice anything unusual around September 10, 2017?
