Byron Chris Batiste, 32, was found inside an apartment off Prescott Road in Baton Rouge on November 23, 2019, having suffered multiple gunshot wounds to his back. Described as a family person, Batiste’s death was one of three homicides in the city that weekend and drew increased police attention.

Investigators traced a digital trail on Instagram linking Batiste to 18-year-old Christopher Keller. Messages showed the two arranged to meet shortly before Batiste was killed, and police believe Keller was the last person to see him alive. Keller was located, questioned, and—according to the investigation—admitted to shooting Batiste and gave a detailed account of events leading to the killing. He was arrested and charged in connection with the murder.

Did anyone in Baton Rouge know Batiste’s routines or have more information about his contacts that weekend?
