Raheem Trevon Williams, 20, was shot and killed at a party in the Waterview area of Middlesex County, Virginia, on the evening of July 5, 2014. Williams, a Gloucester resident, died after gunfire erupted; another person was wounded but survived.

Authorities identified four suspects and brought charges. Andre L. Williams, then 21, of Newport News, was charged with second-degree murder, malicious wounding, and two counts of using a firearm in the commission of a felony. Stephan L. Ward, then 21, of Saluda, faced second-degree murder and malicious wounding charges. KDarius K. Smith, 20, of Saluda, and Shaquele L. Taylor, 20, of Newport News, were charged with accessory after the fact to murder.

Subsequent court action included pleas and sentencing: Andre L. Williams pleaded guilty to voluntary manslaughter and unlawful wounding and received a 15-year sentence with all but four years suspended; Stephan L. Ward entered an Alford plea to misdemeanor reckless handling of a firearm and received a 12-month sentence with six months suspended; KDarius K. Smith pleaded guilty to misdemeanor obstruction of justice and was sentenced to 12 months with all but one month suspended; Shaquele L. Taylor was acquitted of being an accessory after the fact at trial.

Does anyone have information about the party or the events that night in Waterview that could help clarify what happened?
