Travon Edwards, a 15-year-old African American male, was found fatally wounded by a single gunshot in a field in Melville, Louisiana, at the end of January 2016. The St. Landry Parish Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation into his death.

Three people were arrested in connection with the case. A 33-year-old woman, Twanda Louray Washington, was charged with obstruction of justice and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a juvenile. Her 12-year-old son was charged with negligent homicide, and her 15-year-old son was charged with obstruction of justice.

The ages of those charged — including two juveniles — remained a focal point for the community as the case moved forward. If anyone knew Travon, his movements in Melville that week, or has information about the events leading to his death, please come forward.
