On February 5, 2015, John Baynham Jr., 26, was shot and killed inside the First & Last Chance Tavern in Saint Joseph, Missouri. An altercation at the bar escalated when another man, identified as Luis Villegas-Rosa, drew a weapon and fired three shots that struck Baynham. Baynham was pronounced deceased at the scene.

Villegas-Rosa fled but was located shortly afterward after witnesses provided tips; he was charged with second-degree murder and held without bond pending arraignment. Investigators later connected the shooting to alleged gang-related activity, leading to Villegas-Rosa’s indictment in a broader federal RICO case alongside other individuals.

Does anyone have information about John Baynham, his last known associates, or what happened at the First & Last Chance Tavern that night?
