Nathaniel Reynaud, 35, was killed during a home invasion on September 25, 2014, at a residence on Allen Street in Lake Charles, Louisiana. Three armed, masked men forced entry and demanded money and drugs. Reynaud was shot twice with a large-caliber weapon — once in the lower back, which caused him to fall, and then again in the back of the head in what police described as execution style. Two other men in the house survived: resident Howard Olivier escaped after being shot multiple times in the leg, and Dwayne Willis was grazed by a bullet and struck with a sawed-off shotgun.

The investigation identified one intruder as Ali Lee Barconey, who was arrested; three others — William Lee Carter, Bryant Anthony Payne, and Trevis Syntel Barber — were also indicted, and Barconey’s wife, Ineatta Arrington, faced an obstruction charge. Two co-defendants testified against Barconey in exchange for lesser charges. In March 2017 Barconey was convicted of second-degree murder and sentenced to life without parole; Reynaud’s mother and wife addressed the court at sentencing and Barconey maintained his innocence.

Did anyone in Lake Charles know Nathaniel Reynaud or have information about the events at the Allen Street residence that night?
