Oswaldo Neal Santana, 21, was found with multiple gunshot wounds in Leakin Park on February 29, 2012. The call came in at about 9:00 PM for the 4700 block of Windsor Mill Road near the Carrie Murray Nature Center; Santana was alive when found but was pronounced dead at 9:38 PM. Police had not identified a motive or suspects at the time.

Two weeks earlier prosecutors had dropped three attempted first-degree murder charges against Santana tied to a March 20, 2011, triple shooting on Park Heights Terrace after a key witness could not be located; one victim had identified Santana from a photo array. Court records also show a 2009 guilty plea for drug distribution, with a five-year sentence of which all but one month was suspended. Santana was a father to a one-year-old daughter and an eight-month-old son and was described as a stay-at-home father.

Who in the community might have known Santana’s movements or seen anyone in Leakin Park that evening?
