William Kashif Graves, also known as "ILL Will," was killed on September 8, 2007, in Jacksonville, Florida. He was 22 years old at the time of his death. William was born on January 21, 1985, and was affectionately known as "Bootsy" among friends and family. He had grown up in various states, including California and Virginia, before settling in Jacksonville, where he graduated from Forest High School in 2003.
The circumstances surrounding his death are still largely unknown, and his case has remained unsolved. Efforts by advocacy groups such as Project Cold Case have aimed to shed light on William's case and seek justice for his family.
