Corey Kiser, 27, of West Palm Beach was fatally shot outside the Circus Bar on Mason Avenue in Daytona Beach in the early morning of July 20, 2014. Two other people were wounded: Bobbie Canidate suffered a gunshot to the leg and Melissa Gonzalez was shot in the hand; both injuries were described as non-life-threatening.

Investigators identified Ian Maddox, known by the street name Bird, as the primary suspect. Witnesses including Kiser’s brother, Westcan Jones, and Bobbie Canidate testified that Maddox followed Kiser outside and shot him five times — three times in the back, once in the side and once in the front. Surveillance footage from the bar was introduced that showed Maddox following Kiser before the shooting. The trial record notes tense moments in court, including the removal of Maddox’s brothers for allegedly intimidating witnesses.

In July 2016 Maddox was found guilty of first-degree murder and was sentenced to life without parole; he was also convicted of attempted first-degree murder for wounding Canidate and received a 25-year sentence for that charge. Did anyone who knew Corey or was at the Circus Bar that night see something that hasn’t been shared with investigators?
