On December 5, 2014, three men broke into a Jamaica, Queens home. Twenty-one-year-old Taquane Clark was fatally shot during the invasion; his uncle, Jonathan Legister, was wounded and Olive Legister, Jonathan’s mother, was held hostage.

Investigators linked DNA from the scene to 28-year-old Elijah Gough; Gough was later convicted in 2018 and sentenced to 65 years to life. A second man, Prakash Churaman, was identified by Olive Legister, who recognized his voice. Churaman was 15 at the time and a friend of Clark’s. He was convicted of felony murder in December 2018, but that conviction was later overturned and his case returned to the courts, prompting further proceedings and an unscheduled conference ahead of a planned second trial.

Are there readers with memories or information about Taquane, his circle, or the neighborhood in 2014 who can add details?
