Mary Patrice Chalonda Woodruff was 28 when she was killed on October 30, 2017. She and 29-year-old Dewone Broomfield were found with gunshot wounds at Broomfield’s home on East Maryland Street in Evansville, Indiana. Woodruff had sustained a gunshot wound to her face and was pronounced dead at the scene; Broomfield survived long enough to place a 911 call naming William Rice and Deshay Hackner as the attackers.

That call led to a police chase and the rapid arrest of Rice and Hackner, who were each charged with two counts of murder. Deshay Hackner, also known as Wire Man, had recently been involved in other cases: he had been acquitted in a 2014 murder case and had been released a week earlier on bond in a resisting law enforcement case. Prosecutors announced they would seek life without parole if convictions were obtained.

A jury later convicted Hackner of two counts of murder and two counts of robbery; he admitted to habitual offender status and firearm enhancements and was sentenced to a total of 157 years in prison. Did anyone who knew Mary or was in that Evansville neighborhood at the time see anything that could help clarify what happened that night?
