Aron Lucas Young was 35 when he was fatally shot in Blacksburg, South Carolina, in the early hours of June 10, 2015. Authorities say Young and another man, 43-year-old Jerry Dwayne Farmer, were shot; their bodies were found the next night in a pickup truck that had been set on fire in a rural area of neighboring York County.

Investigators from the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office linked the killings to a drug deal that turned violent and identified two Blacksburg men, Steven Eugene Parker and Donald Edward Creswell Jr., as suspects. Evidence gathered included DNA and cell phone records. In April 2018, after a two-day bench trial in Cherokee County, Steven Parker, then 36, was convicted of two counts of murder and two counts of possession of a weapon during the commission of a violent crime and received two life sentences without parole. At that time, charges against Donald Creswell Jr. were still pending.

Young’s mother has spoken about his struggle with addiction and her wish that everyone involved be fully prosecuted. Does anyone have information about Young’s activities in the days before June 10, 2015, or about the incident in Blacksburg?
