On August 18, 2021, at just after midnight, Connor Ethan Lloyd, 29, a U.S. Army veteran, was found shot in the driveway of his Grover Drive home in Lyman, South Carolina. He was taken to a nearby hospital and died of his injuries. Lloyd was engaged to be married the following April and was the father of a young daughter from a prior relationship.

Police treated the killing as a targeted attack. Investigators later linked the case to a custody dispute over Lloyd and Kendra Leigh Wilson’s daughter. The probe led to arrests in spring 2025: Cynthia Wilson, 64, was arrested March 26 and charged with accessory before the fact, accessory after the fact, and conspiracy to commit murder; Kendra Leigh Wilson, 33, was located in the Netherlands on April 7 and faces the same charges while awaiting extradition; and Douglas Hilton Gilbert, 47, was arrested April 15 and charged with murder and possession of a weapon during a violent crime, accused of carrying out the shooting.

Prosecutors say the suspects discussed methods to kill Lloyd, conducted a dry run, and were motivated by the custody dispute; custody of the child was later given to Lloyd’s father. Does anyone have information about Lloyd’s life in Lyman or the days leading up to August 18, 2021?
