Bong Soo Chon, 52, was shot and killed during a robbery at his Texaco gas station in Lake Worth, Florida, on October 11, 2004. Chon’s family, who emigrated from Korea in 1979, remembered him as a hardworking business owner and active member of his church and community.

Prosecutors later tried Henderson more than once. A first jury deadlocked on murder and robbery charges related to Chon’s death, producing a mistrial; Henderson was convicted in an earlier failed Wendy’s robbery and received a 30-year sentence for that offense. In a subsequent trial Henderson was convicted of Chon’s murder and robbery and sentenced to two consecutive life terms. Two accomplices, Shane Farley and Derek Glinton, testified that Henderson admitted shooting Chon because Chon had seen his face.
