Sasha was found dead with gunshot wounds in her car on a rural road in Chesterfield County at 8:30am on Easter Sunday.

She was discovered slumped over the wheel and police say her car was parked on the road, left running for nearly two hours as unknowing motorists drove past. As often happens, Wall has been misgendered and deadnamed by both the police and in numerous media reports.

Her body was discovered around 8:30 a.m. Police noted that she had been shot multiple times in the neck and shoulder.

“Whoever it was, was angry,” Sheriff Jay Brooks told the FOX 46. “You could tell by the number of shots.”

Brooks added that whoever killed her was “either sitting in the passenger seat or standing outside the car with the car door open.”

Sasha is being remembered on social media as a warm and friendly person, with calls for justice. Her Facebook account is https://www.facebook.com/wendell.Sasha.
