Jamesha Roberts, 25, was fatally shot in the Sherwood Forest neighborhood of Norfolk, Virginia, on the evening of December 21, 2015. A Portsmouth native and Churchland High School graduate, she worked at the Starbucks at Norfolk International Airport and was a mother of a two-year-old daughter and a four-month-old son. Police found her lying in the street near Robin Hood Road and Tillman Road around 8:30 p.m.; she was pronounced dead at the scene. Her death was the 33rd homicide in Norfolk that year.

Investigators later tied her killing to a broader string of violent crimes in Hampton Roads that holiday season. Federal authorities uncovered that Roberts was a random victim in a contest among members of the Nine Trey Gangsters to see who could shoot the most people; witnesses said the shooter fired at her for walking on the wrong side of the street and then boasted about it. The case was prosecuted as part of a larger racketeering indictment that alleged multiple murders and attempted murders.

Did anyone in the Norfolk area who knew Jamesha or saw activity around Robin Hood Road and Tillman Road that night come forward with information?
