Abdulraham Alaquir Taleb, 53, was killed on December 28, 2018 while working outside the gas station where he was a clerk in Bogalusa, Louisiana. Surveillance video from the store shows a vehicle with three people arriving; two occupants armed with shotguns confronted Mr. Taleb, then robbed the store and fled. The shooting proved fatal.

Days after the killing, three suspects from Mississippi were taken into custody in Alabama: 24-year-old Melissa Smith, 24-year-old Lance Hunter Rouse, and a 17-year-old male. Each was held on $2.1 million bond and charged with first-degree murder and armed robbery.

One defendant later received a life sentence and all three pleaded guilty in December 2019. Is there anyone who knew Mr. Taleb or who was at the gas station that day who can share details that might deepen the record of what happened?
