Carlos Figueroa, 26, was shot dead on the evening of February 16, 2015, in the Hamilton Hill neighborhood of Schenectady, New York. A lifelong resident who worked in construction and was a father of two young daughters, he had recently marked his first wedding anniversary and his 26th birthday. The shooting, the city’s first homicide that year, took place on Paige Street near his home; Figueroa was struck once in the neck at close range.

Investigators concluded the killing followed a planned marijuana transaction that was actually an attempted robbery by both parties. Four people were arrested in connection with the case. The man identified as the shooter, Carlson Nunes, 23, was charged with second-degree murder; Yunis Johnson, 22, and Sheiquan Parker, 22, were also charged with second-degree murder. A 23-year-old half-brother of Nunes from Troy was charged with robbery. In April 2016, Carlson Nunes was sentenced to 22 years to life in prison for Figueroa’s murder.
