On March 27, 2016, 35-year-old Jason W Head of Sarasota, Florida, was found fatally shot outside a property on Myakka Road. The homeowner, 61-year-old James Cain, initially told the Sarasota County Sheriff’s Office that Head had arrived firing a gun and that Cain returned fire in self-defense. Cain said the property’s security cameras were inoperable.

Investigators later recovered video from those cameras that contradicted Cain’s account. The footage showed James Cain and his son, 32-year-old Robert Cain, conversing over Head’s body and placing a gun in his hand to make it appear Head had been armed. Robert’s girlfriend, 27-year-old Racquel Pontbriand, arrived shortly afterward to pick him up. Authorities charged James Cain as principal to second-degree murder with a firearm, Robert Cain with second-degree murder with a firearm, and Pontbriand with accessory after the fact to second-degree murder. Law enforcement indicated a possible motive linked to a recent breakup between Head and a member of the Cain family; Robert Cain and Pontbriand had prior records noting burglary, possession of a weapon by a felon, drug possession, and dealing in stolen property. All three were held without bail pending further proceedings.

Did anyone in the Sarasota area see Jason Head on March 27, 2016, or have information about his movements or contacts with the Cain family?
