David John Pence, 56, was shot and killed in his Metairie, Louisiana, home the night of April 22, 2015. The intruder also fatally shot David’s 25-year-old son, Nicholas, after Nicholas rushed to his father’s aid; David’s wife, Beth Pence, discovered them and made a 911 call as she attempted to help her son. The shooter fired a total of five blasts from a shotgun, having entered the house through a side door after breaking into a car parked in the driveway.

Investigators say the suspect was a 17-year-old from New Orleans named Dexter Allen, who had been committing a string of vehicle burglaries in the neighborhood that night and had used a car he reportedly carjacked earlier to travel to Metairie. The Jefferson Parish jury later convicted Allen of two counts of second-degree murder and 19 counts of simple burglary; in April 2017 he received life without parole for the killings.
