Hobbs, New Mexico party shooting
On August 25, 2019, three partygoers were killed and four others were wounded after arguments occurred at a party in Hobbs, New Mexico. Bishop Henderson, a 19/20-year-old male DJ at the party, was arrested and only initially charged for non-fatally shooting one person.[1] The victims mainly came from other areas outside of New Mexico, and were in their late teens to mid-twenties.[2][3] In 2022, Henderson was acquitted of all additional charges related to the shooting, including three counts of murder.[4]
