Otis Lamont Parks, also known as Lamont Clemons, was 54 when he was killed in August 2014. His body was found at a scenic overlook on Route 16. The case led to indictments in November 2014 against two men from Olean, New York: Gary N. Maull and Thomas Hall, known as Turtle.

Thomas Hall accepted a plea and testified that Maull shot Parks execution-style while the victim was on his knees. Hall was convicted of criminal facilitation for driving Maull to the scene and helping conceal the body; he received 7 1/2 to 15 years in state prison. Gary N. Maull was convicted of second-degree murder after a January 2016 trial and in March 2016 was sentenced to 25 years to life, the maximum for that charge, and is incarcerated at Attica Correctional Facility. An appeal made a minor change to how some sentences run concurrently but left Maull’s principal term intact.

Did anyone in the area know Parks, Maull, or Hall and have details about their relationships or interactions leading up to August 2014?
