Zaire Roberts, 23, was fatally shot in Palm Coast, Florida, on December 29, 2021, during a planned home-invasion robbery. According to the Flagler County Sheriff’s Office, Roberts and accomplices Kwentel Moultrie and Taylor Manjarres arranged a fake marijuana sale to target a man they believed was carrying significant cash at a Regent Lane residence. Manjarres entered the home to distract the target, identified as Danial Marashi, while Roberts and Moultrie waited outside.

An armed confrontation followed: Roberts shot Marashi twice in the leg, and Marashi returned fire, striking Roberts in the chest and killing him; Marashi’s injuries were not life-threatening. Investigators served more than 20 search warrants and pursued social media and device evidence and interviews that showed the robbery had been planned. Moultrie and Manjarres were later arrested and charged; Marashi was not charged after investigators concluded he acted in self-defense.

Does anyone have information about the planning or people involved that could help fill gaps in the timeline?
