The indictment states that Henderson shot into a vehicle containing 5 people, including brothers Willis Hampton, 18, and Willie Hampton, 23, who were both shot to death. Another man, 19-year-old James Dean, was wounded in the shoulder but later recovered.
A 19-year-old woman and a 14-year-old girl were in the car but were not struck by gunfire, Gasrdner said.
The incident took place near Dial and Barnes streets in Prichard, and Gardner said at the time that the shooting was drug-related and was probably related to a turf conflict.
There was no weapon found in the Hamptons' Ford Crown Victoria when police arrived, but officers found a bag of crack cocaine, Gardner said. He added that the Hamptons were in the area to sell drugs when a white van pulled up to them and someone opened fire on the car.
Henderson, 36, has a long criminal record dating back at least to 1994, with several charges related to drugs and illegal firearms, according to online court records.
