Inandi Wyche

Inandi Wyche was a 17-year-old student at Ribault High School in Jacksonville, Florida, with plans to attend Florida A&M University. A Black female, Inandi was a cheerleader, a member of the volleyball team, and a contestant in the Miss Ribault Pageant. Her mother, Monique Wyche, described her as having a "big personality, beautiful inside and out," with a "beautiful smile" and a love for laughter and good times.

On the evening of March 19, 2020, Inandi was driving with a friend in Jacksonville’s Sherwood Forest neighborhood. Around 7 p.m., as she pulled to a stop sign on Portsmouth Avenue, a gray car pulled up in front of her vehicle. Two men exited the car and opened fire. Inandi was shot and died at the scene. Her passenger was injured but was able to run from the car and survived.

Investigators determined that the shooting was a botched gang retaliation and that Inandi was an innocent victim who was not the intended target. Police said the gunmen were aiming for her passenger, Terise Powe, a rapper also known as Kshordy. The shooters believed Powe was responsible for the murder of another man a few days earlier. In the months following the shooting, Inandi’s family held press conferences and pleaded with the community for any information that could lead to an arrest.

Ten months after the killing, the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office arrested two men they described as known gang members, Roland Ball II and Xavion Porter, and charged them in connection with Inandi's murder. Ball was initially charged with second-degree murder, but the charge was later upgraded to first-degree murder. He also faced charges for harassing a witness and for a separate shooting incident that occurred the day before Inandi was killed.

In January 2025, a Duval County jury found Roland Ball II guilty of First-Degree Murder, four counts of Attempted First-Degree Murder, one count of Attempted Second-Degree Murder, and other related charges. With the verdict, Ball faces a mandatory sentence of life in a Florida state prison and is awaiting a formal sentencing hearing.
