Allen Record, a 30-year-old man from West Palm Beach, was shot and killed on January 10, 2017 after answering a Craigslist ad for a motorcycle. He and a friend went to the 300 block of Chillingsworth Drive to meet the seller when two masked men with weapons approached them. During the robbery Allen was shot; his cellphone was taken and the assailants fled.

Investigators linked fingerprints on the discarded cellphone to 25-year-old Jeffrey Joseph of suburban West Palm Beach, who was arrested and charged with first-degree murder and armed robbery. Jurors heard that Joseph attempted to tamper with the jury by contacting an outside party and reading jurors’ names, prompting revocation of his cellphone, mail, and visitation privileges during the trial.

On February 9, 2023, after a four-day trial, Joseph was convicted of first-degree murder and armed robbery and sentenced to consecutive life terms without parole for the murder plus a minimum of 10 years for the robbery. Does anyone have information about the meeting on Chillingsworth Drive or the Craigslist ad that led to this encounter?
