THOMASVILLE —
Defendants in a murder case told a Thomas County judge Thursday they understood the death sentence is possible if they are convicted.
The four Thomasville residents charged with murder in the shooting death of a South Carolina soldier are:
• Kiera Shanise Graham, 22, 320-D Shoreline Drive
• Kimberly Deshaundra Williams, 26, 320-D Shoreline Drive
• Alvin Davis III, 20, 217 Simeon St.
• Chaquel Jaquez Cook, 18, 217 Simeon St.
Suspects are charged with the shooting death of Hassan Hana Williams, 21, of West Columbia, S.C. Williams’ body was discovered Tuesday morning behind a vacant house in the 400 block of Metcalf Avenue.
“There will be more charges forthcoming later,” said Steve Turner, special agent in charge of the Thomasville regional office of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation.
Graham also is charged with arson in connection with the shooting victim’s vehicle, a 1995 Mercedes, which was found engulfed in flames on Millpond Road about 9:45 a.m. Tuesday, about 45 minutes after Williams is believed to have been shot.
