Izaiha Jon McFarland was 17 when he was shot and killed on the evening of February 6, 2019, at an apartment in Kirksville, Missouri. The shooting followed an argument after two other young men, Andrew Head and Drake Zanoni, arrived; the conflict reportedly arose from a sense of disrespect about Izaiha’s presence. He was shot in the chest, taken to Northeast Regional Medical Center, and died of his wound.

Family and friends remembered Izaiha as charming, funny, and witty, with interests in fishing, four-wheeling, basketball and card games. The investigation led to the arrests of Andrew Head and Drake Zanoni. Prosecutors said Head encouraged Zanoni to shoot Izaiha. In June 2021 a jury found Andrew Head, then 20, guilty of second-degree murder and armed criminal action and he received a 27-year prison sentence. Zanoni was charged with second-degree murder and armed criminal action and was awaiting trial.

Did anyone in Kirksville know Izaiha or have information about what happened that night?
