Dezmeion A. Poole, 24, was shot to death in his apartment in the 2100 block of Watch Avenue in Springfield, Illinois, on March 17, 2017. He suffered multiple gunshot wounds and died after a robbery at the apartment that escalated into the fatal shooting. Born April 19, 1992, in St. Joseph, Michigan, he was raised in Springfield and was a graduate of Springfield Southeast High School. Dezmeion worked as a truck driver and had plans to move to Minnesota with his girlfriend, Amanda Schroyer, and their two children.

Investigators identified three men who went to the apartment intending to steal cannabis. Moises B. Trujillo was identified as the gunman; Antonio L. Ragsdale and Caston M. Rosa also participated. The court later found Trujillo guilty of murder and armed robbery; Ragsdale pleaded guilty to armed robbery; Rosa pleaded guilty to first-degree murder. Sentencing and prison terms were imposed for all three defendants.

Does anyone have memories of Dezmeion or information about the case that might add context to what happened that night?
