On the evening of October 9, 2022, five men were shot to death at a house on Bobo Drive in Inman, South Carolina. Four were found dead at the scene; 19-year-old Roman Christean Megael Rocha, who had been staying at the home, was critically wounded, taken to Spartanburg Regional Medical Center, and died during surgery. The other victims were Thomas Ellis Anderson, 37; Adam Daniel Morley, 32; Mark Allen Hewitt, 59; and James Derek Baldwin, 49.

Investigators identified 24-year-old James Douglas Drayton, who had been living in the house about two weeks before the killings, as the suspect. Drayton fled in a vehicle belonging to a family member of one of the victims and was arrested the next day in Burke County, Georgia, after an attempted armed robbery and kidnapping. During interrogation, he gave a full confession and said he had been using methamphetamine for four days before the shootings. He was charged with multiple counts of homicide and related weapons offenses.

This was described as the largest single murder in Spartanburg County history. If anyone knew Roman Rocha or has information about the events at the Bobo Drive residence, please come forward.
