Marquise Lightfoot, an 18-year-old African American male from Houston with family ties in Natalbany, Louisiana, was found dead in the yard of a home off McGee Lane on Jimmy Drive on June 3, 2016. His death was treated as a homicide by the Tangipahoa Parish Sheriff’s Office; the discovery came a day after two other men were found deceased inside a vehicle about a block away.

Investigators identified 22-year-old Antoine Schaffer as the person responsible for Lightfoot’s shooting death. Schaffer was already in custody on an unrelated Hammond home invasion charge discovered a couple of days after Lightfoot’s body was found, and he had prior convictions and pending drug and weapons matters. Detectives also allege a family effort to impede the inquiry: Schaffer’s grandmother, Debra Knight, was charged with accessory to first-degree murder, obstruction of justice, and illegal consideration for criminal bail bonds; his mother, Letanya Schaffer, was charged with obstruction of justice; and Keirashelya Augustus was arrested in connection with the case.

Antoine Schaffer was charged with first-degree murder and obstruction of justice and held on $1,050,000 bond; Debra Knight’s bond was set at $325,000. Who in the community has information about Marquise’s movements or the events in Natalbany that week?
