Justin Miles Todd was 35 when he was shot and killed in Tequesta, Florida, on September 22, 2019. A lifelong Florida resident born March 20, 1984, he worked as a chef for Aramark Corporation and was remembered by family and friends as kindhearted, selfless, and caring.

On the night of the shooting Justin and a friend were at a bar in Jupiter and accepted a ride with Bryan David Bacallao, 28, of Hypoluxo, and others. An argument between Bacallao and his girlfriend in the backseat drew Justin’s intervention because he objected to men putting their hands on women. Upon arrival at Shay Place in Tequesta, Bacallao retrieved a 9mm handgun from his car and shot Justin in the chest; Justin was pronounced dead at St. Mary’s Medical Center in West Palm Beach.

Bacallao was arrested at the scene, booked into the Palm Beach County Jail, and charged with first-degree murder; he was denied bond at his first court appearance. Justin’s family described him as a Good Samaritan who stood up for others and called for justice.
