Aaron JaVon Sam, 23, was killed during a home invasion in Lake Charles, Louisiana, on August 12, 2016. Police say the front door of a Lewis Street residence had been kicked in in the early morning hours; officers found Sam inside with a fatal gunshot wound. Investigators described Sam as one of three armed men who had forced entry, and they clarified the occupants of the house were not responsible for the shooting.

The case produced several arrests. A grand jury later indicted Jacolby Jerome Cunigan, then 23, and Jeremy Romaine LeBlanc, then 26, on second-degree murder charges, with prosecutors alleging they were responsible for Sam’s death. Daniel Dherrell Sams, then 24 and a former McNeese State University quarterback, was indicted on accessory after the fact to second-degree murder; charges against another initial suspect were later rejected. Cunigan was released from jail in February 2018 after his attorney argued a speedy-trial violation.

Does anyone have information about the August 12, 2016 home invasion or knew Aaron JaVon Sam?
