Ladarius Bentley, 20, of Cocoa, Florida, was found dead at a residence on Brophy Boulevard in unincorporated Brevard County on March 16, 2017, after a 911 call reporting shots fired. Deputies discovered Bentley had been shot during what investigators described as a botched robbery attempt.

Bentley allegedly confronted Rivera-Verduzco with a handgun; a struggle for the weapon followed and Rivera-Verduzco gained control of the gun and shot Bentley. Johnson fled the scene after the shooting.

Authorities ruled Rivera-Verduzco’s actions self-defense and he was not charged. Johnson was arrested and charged with felony murder in connection with the robbery that led to Bentley’s death. Has anyone with knowledge of the parties or the area seen developments from that night that weren’t reported?
