Crestony Colin was 18 and from West Palm Beach when he was killed on February 10, 2014. His body was found in the trunk of a burning 2013 Chevrolet Malibu near Weston, Florida; the car had been rented by Colin’s girlfriend. Friends said they last heard from him the day before when he mentioned he planned to make a drug deal.

Investigators identified 46-year-old Hiram Gonzalez of the Lake Worth area as having known Colin from earlier drug transactions. Gonzalez said a confrontation occurred in which Colin allegedly demanded $2,000 at gunpoint and that Gonzalez shot him in self-defense during a struggle. The jury rejected Gonzalez’s self-defense claim under Florida’s stand your ground law, convicted him of second-degree murder with a firearm, arson, and tampering with physical evidence, and sentenced him to 50 years. Gonzalez maintained he acted in self-defense and asked for forgiveness from Colin’s family; Colin’s mother, Miracienne Dieujuste, testified about her loss.

Are there new leads or details about Colin’s last movements that could help clarify what happened that day?
