Deandre Ricky Bolston was 19 when he was shot and found behind a building at the Milledgeville Manor Apartments on September 1, 2016. He was taken to Oconee Regional Hospital and died of a shotgun blast to his abdomen.

Investigators recovered the shotgun after it had been wrapped in plastic, taped, and buried near the Oconee River. Four people were arrested in connection with the case: brothers Kevin Askew, 22, and William Brown, 16, were charged with murder, while Voisel Renfro, 21, and Javier Williams, 18, faced charges for making false statements and tampering with evidence. Testimony indicated Bolston had a handgun during the incident, and the defense for Askew and Brown maintained Bolston had been the aggressor.

A Baldwin County grand jury indicted Askew and Brown on malice murder and aggravated assault in November 2016. In October 2017 both brothers pleaded guilty to aggravated assault; Askew was sentenced to ten years with the first year in confinement and then probation, Brown received ten years with the first two years in confinement and then probation. Renfro pleaded guilty to tampering with evidence and giving false statements and received probation; Williams was charged with making false statements.

Does anyone have information about Bolston’s activities at the Milledgeville Manor Apartments or about the events that led to the shooting?
