Ronaj Henderson was 22 and from Bryans Road, Maryland, when he was last seen by family on the morning of October 27, 2018. His family reported him missing on November 2, and detectives later determined he had been shot by someone he knew while in the Bryans Road area. His body was discovered in a remote, wooded area off Riverside Road and Smith Point Road in Nanjemoy on November 4.

Court documents say Henderson was shot in the back of the head while asleep in a vehicle. Investigators located and arrested 26-year-old Janeal Jerome Thompson in Arlington, Virginia, the same day the body was found; he was extradited to Charles County and charged with first-degree murder and related offenses. In October 2019 a judge described the killing as an execution and imposed a lengthy prison term including additional time for unrelated probation violations and a heroin possession charge.

If anyone knew Ronaj, his movements in late October 2018, or has information about who was with him that week, please come forward.
