In the late hours of a Tuesday in March 2016, 28-year-old Shane Varnadore was working as a Papa John's delivery driver in Lawrenceville, Georgia, when a routine delivery to an apartment complex on Herrington Road turned fatal. Responding officers found Varnadore shortly before midnight with a fatal gunshot wound. Investigators described the delivery as a deliberate setup to rob a driver; an order slip with a phone number found near the body led them to an apartment where pizza boxes from the delivery were recovered.

A handgun used in the shooting was recovered hidden inside a pancake box. Two suspects were arrested: 21-year-old Jermaine Young and 14-year-old Reginald Lofton, who was charged as an adult. Both were charged with felony murder, aggravated assault, and armed robbery; each reportedly blamed the other for the shooting. Lofton admitted knowing of the robbery plan, providing the gun, and taking the pizzas after the shooting. Did anyone in Lawrenceville see Shane on that March night or have information about the setup that led to his killing?
